Victor Delgado Dies in Work-related Accident in Enid, Oklahoma


Enid, Okla. — A man died in a construction site work-related accident. The incident happened Thursday afternoon in the 1800 block of West Carrier Road.

According to reports, 26-year-old Victor Delgado was fatally injured when an I-beam that was being moved fell on him.

Delgado was employed by Elite GC, the company responsible for constructing the building at the location where the accident took place.

Thoughts on fatal work-related accidents

How did this happen? The victim’s family deserves answers. It’s completely unacceptable that someone could go to work and be struck by an I-beam being transported. This is not a risk anyone should face, and whoever is responsible should be held accountable.

To fully understand what happened and what went wrong, the company’s safety protocols, along with the safety protocols of other contractors on the job, must be reviewed, and trained professionals should thoroughly investigate the actions of all companies involved in the construction project.

An unexpected death causes profound emotional and physical pain, as well as unforeseen financial burdens. When this loss is due to someone else’s negligence, the affected family deserves the right to hold those responsible accountable.

May the family find the support they need during this heartbreaking time.
