A 43-year-old Pittsburgh man died after being struck by an industrial container full of liquid Friday morning in the RIDC Park in O’Hara, according to county detectives.

Allegheny County police said Jason D’Alicandro was working at Alpha Aromatics, on Alpha Drive in the RIDC Park, when he was struck by an industrial tote containing 330 gallons of liquid.

Emergency responders were notified shortly after 10:30 a.m. D’Alicandro was transported to a local hospital where police say he died.

The investigation has been turned over to the federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).

Anyone with information about the incident is asked to call 833-ALL-TIPS. Callers can remain anonymous.
