A foreman for a plumbing, heating and air conditioning company who was seriously injured in a job site fall agreed to a $5.35 million settlement in his Middlesex County suit, Ward v. Aurolife Pharma, on March 16.
Brian Ward, now 60, was working at Aurolife Pharma USA in Dayton on Sept. 3, 2014, when he plunged 20 feet through a mezzanine onto the floor below. Ward was installing industrial equipment at the facility when he fell through an unguarded, 6-by-6-foot hole in the mezzanine floor, the suit alleged.
