A solid waste worker died while on the job Friday afternoon in northeast Baltimore, according to a joint statement released by Mayor Brandon Scott and acting DPW director Khalil Zaied.
Ronald Silver II, a Baltimore City Department of Public Works’ Bureau of Solid Waste employee, experienced a medical situation that required immediate assistance while he was in a truck with fellow coworkers, the statement said.
Silver was transported to a hospital where he later died.
“Our hearts are first and foremost with him [Silver II], his family and loved ones and his DPW colleagues as we grapple with this loss,” Scott and Zaied said.
Officials are working with the crew and medical professionals who tended to Silver to learn of what occurred.
No further information was immediately released.
