WAVERLY, IOWA (AP) -- A construction worker injured at the site of the new Waverly-Shell Rock middle school has died.
The Waterloo-Cedar Falls Courier reported 51-year-old Larry L. Reisner, of Oelwein, died Saturday at University Hospitals in Iowa City.
The newspaper cites information from the Jamison-Schmitz Funeral Home in Oelwein that says Reisner died on Saturday. The funeral home has an obituary for Reisner posted on its website, and a person answering the phone at the funeral home confirmed Reisner's death.
The school district's superintendent, Jere Vyverberg, says the accident happened Thursday.
Reisner was injured when a brace supporting a concrete cast hit him in the head.
