Médina : un monte-charge cède sur un chantier, un écolier tué
On March 24, a fatal accident occurred on the construction site of a six-story building (R+6), located at the intersection of streets 45 and 34 in the Medina.
As workers were transporting bricks to the sixth floor, the freight elevator malfunctioned after its rotating cable snapped. According to Libération, which reported the incident, the elevator and its load then toppled onto a group of schoolchildren passing by the building. An 11-year-old boy, PS Sène, was killed instantly, while his classmates narrowly escaped.
Following this tragedy, the five workers responsible for the maneuver were arrested by the Medina police station, then referred to the Dakar prosecutor's office for involuntary manslaughter, the same source reports.
