Jose Martinez-Hernandez died Saturday after falling 12 feet to the ground when his apartment balcony unexpectedly gave way. Incredibly, the balcony’s concrete floor broke in half as Mr. Martinez-Hernandez stepped on it, causing him to fall to his death. The apartment complex has been the scene of significant repairs during the last several weeks, although the apartment’s owners did not notify residents of any unusual risks associated with their residence.
