A special mass is being held at Notre dame University for a student who died while filming football practice, when the tall platform he was standing on toppled over.
Notre Dame beat writer, Brian Hamiltion says it was a windy day during practice, "This was an extremely windy day today, I mean they set up stanchions and saw horses to block off the street and those were getting blown around by wind gusts."
Declan Sullivan, 20, was majoring in marketing and film and had written about arts and entertaibnment events for the school's newspaper. Matt Gamber, the editor and chief of the paper described Sullivan as, "an extremely enthusiastic and a really driven kid... he had a lot of excitement and energy for the events and subjects he covered."
Questions are being raised as to why the student was even allowed up there on a day with 40-50 mph winds.
