The roof of the SKK ice hockey stadium in St. Petersburg collapsed during dismantling work earlier today, killing one worker who was dragged down into the rubble.
Dramatic footage of the collapse, in which a worker is seen running and failing to grab onto a man cage suspended by a crane as the structure crumbles, was posted by the Fontanka news website.
Rescue workers later found the body of 29-year-old worker Matvei Kucherov, the news website reported. The man reportedly left the man cage without a safety line to do work on the roof before it collapsed.
