· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)

A 56-year-old woman, Donika Gocaj, tragically died after falling into an uncovered manhole on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan. Witnesses reported that she screamed, 'I'm dying,' shortly after the incident, which occurred around midnight. An autopsy revealed that Gocaj died from severe injuries, including thermal inhalation burns and blunt force trauma to the chest, and her death was ruled accidental. Con Edison, the utility company responsible for the manhole covers, stated that surveillance footage indicated a large truck had dislodged the cover shortly before Gocaj parked her vehicle nearby. The company had a valid permit for work in the area at the time.
