Those days when demolition itself isn’t quite dangerous enough.
Only in America! An unnamed demolition worker stands accused of firing a volley of rounds from an AR-15 assault rifle on a site in Orlando, having been filmed doing so – presumably – by fellow workers.
The video allegedly shows the rifle being fired repeatedly inside a building being demolished as part of the Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts project in downtown Orlando.
Orlando police officials said they have seen the cellphone video and are trying to determine where the rifle might have been fired inside the iconic round building that sits across from City Hall.
A city spokesperson said the construction worker seen in the video is no longer allowed on the construction site.
Someone sent the video to the Channel 9 newsroom and sent copies to city officials. Crusader Demolition – a company whose motto, ironically, is “safe, fast and clean demolition” – from Lakeland, is the company that was hired to take down the building.
