Tonight, a 45-year-old man is in the morgue after he was killed in a freak accident in Biscayne Village. Denbigh Grinage was at the sandpit around 1:30 this afternoon, in between the chassis and the box of a dump truck, working on the hydraulic system when the box fell on his head, killing him instantly. Grinage was originally from Sandhill Village and today, we spoke with his brother-in-law about the accident.
Jacinto Hernandez, Brother-in-Law of Deceased
"I was at work and my daughter call and told me that If I heard what happen and I told her no. Then she told me that her uncle Denbigh just had an accident, that something fell on his head. So I decide to do my trip and then go up there and see what happened, but I learnt that they were working on a dump truck and they were putting on the pan of the truck. This is what I heard right, the guy says that he pulled out the first board from his side, he was supposed to go around and get the other board from the other side of the pan, but he just stretched over and pulled the board and then that's when the dump came down. Actually, it didn't slap all the way down, it just came down a bit and smash a part of his forehead."
"He was a cool guy, hardworking, handyman and things like that. Everybody is feeling down. Its like a tragic sudden death, so that's what happened/"
Grinage had no children.
