He was lowered from the roof by the fire department and taken to a local hospital where he later died.
"The person who fired the shot was getting actually out of his truck, slipped on a piece of construction debris at this point," Losat said."He was transitioning the gun from his waistband, his pocket, and at some point the gun is fired unintentionally."
