The calamity that befell the Dallas Cowboys over the weekend at their training complex is set to be investigated meticulously by agents from the Occupational Safety and Hazard Administration (OSHA) today, according to the Associated Press.

The overall amount of injuries from the event were minimal, but the scope became much worse yesterday after it was disclosed that Rich Behm, the team’s 33-year-old scouting assistant, had been permanently paralyzed from the waist down. Special teams coach Joe DeCamillis also suffered a serious spinal injury, but doctors feel confident that he will fully recover.

The agency will begin by taking a look at the permits and construction paperwork on file from the initial work done on the site, and will work quickly to determine the reason(s) behind the collapse of the facility during the high winds in the area on Saturday.

    these kinds of accidents are caused due to lack of proper training, the company should provide proper training to its employees as proper training can help reducing rate of occupational accidents.

    its not their fault that the facility fell they all did what they were supposed to do, they found a place to protect themselves and when it was over they looked for the people that were hurt, there is not that much you can do when the building your in starts to fall down in like 10 seconds. If you were in that same thing you would not know what to do in an instant you would do the same thing they did.
