An Arizona construction worker died on the job after being trapped beneath six feet of collapsing earth.
Ronald Andrew Baquera Jr., or 'Ronnie,' 44, was working at a site in Goodyear on Monday when a trench suddenly collapsed.
He was left trapped beneath six to seven feet of fast-moving dirt, according to AZ Central.
Tragically, the operation shifted from a rescue to a recovery within just 30 minutes, and after nearly 13 grueling hours his body was finally removed.
'My daughter is really torn up,' Melissa Prado, the mother of two of Baquera's children, told ABC 15 News. 'She spends almost every day with him.'
