Man Decapitated At Marinship
Death visited Marinship Saturday night, when Azel Sorola, 26-year-old crane operator was instantly killed. Sorola fell from the deck into the hold of the ship and was decapitated. Many of his fellow workers witnessed the accident.
Sorola’s home was in San Francisco, and he had been employed at the yard for about a year.
