CALHOUN TEEN DIES IN FALL

(03/09/2006)

A nineteen-year-old Calhoun teenager is dead from a fall near Waynesburg, PA Tuesday night. Phillip Watkins of Chloe, son of long-time Department of Highway employee Billy Watkins, fell from a railroad overpass to State Route 21, according to Waynesburg authorities. The youth left Calhoun Monday to pursue employment with OSMOSE, a company that treats wooden utility poles with a preservative. A witness, who is a co-worker, told police that Watkins and another man climbed a bank onto the overpass while a train was crossing over it. While waiting for the train to pass, the victim lost his footing and fell onto the roadway under the overpass. Details were not available regarding a funeral service.
