SUMMARY: A plumber tragically died while working underneath a house in Kenner on Kentucky Avenue. The incident occurred when mud and water collapsed around him, trapping him. The plumber, part of a crew from Peterson Plumbing, had been tunneling beneath the house for several days. Emergency crews were called just before 4 p.m. on Friday, but despite efforts, the victim, whose head was the only part exposed, was pronounced dead at the scene. It took fire crews nearly 90 minutes to recover the body. The exact cause of death is still under investigation, with some speculating suffocation. The house is not at risk of collapsing.
