Drew Davis, IBEW 1245 apprentice died in his North Carolina home accident. The IBEW 1245 community is rallying together following the heartbreaking accident that resulted in the death of Journeyman Lineman Apprentice Drew Davis. Drew, a devoted father of four, was at home in Northern California bonding with his newborn child when a devastating accident left him severely injured. The freak incident caused catastrophic spinal damage, resulting in the need for spinal fusion surgery—a complex and painful procedure. More surgeries are anticipated as part of what will undoubtedly be a long and challenging road to recovery.
