A Barbadian policeman, who was working as a temporary construction worker in Brooklyn, was killed Tuesday when a building on which he was working collapsed.

Two other persons were injured in the incident. 33-year-old Richard Joseph was reportedly working on the ground floor of a former city building when the roof caved in, burying him under the rubble. The building is being converted into an apartment complex.Press reports in New York say the police officer was on two months leave from his Barbados job. But while confirming that Mr. Joseph was a member of the Royal Barbados Police Force, police spokesman Inspector Barry Hunte could not immediately confirm how long the officer was on leave. Family members in New York say Mr. Joseph was seeking to earn additional cash during his stay in New York and was scheduled to return to Barbados on Friday.

New faces on the PRC District 5 ballot

SANTA FE — Voters in Public Regulation Commission District 5, which covers all or part of 11 counties in the southwestern part of the state, will select a new commissioner this year.

Incumbent E. Shirley Baca of Las Cruces was defeated by Sandy R. Jones in the Democratic primary. Jones will face C. Earl Greer, who finished first among three candidates in the Republican primary.

Both men list improving constituent services, and helping people better understand the workings of the PRC as among their top priorities.

Jones said it's important to bring services to the people.

"We've got to figure out a way to get staff and commissioners in the districts on a regular basis," he said. "It's very difficult for a person in Santa Teresa to drive to Santa Fe to get help, and it just doesn't happen on the phone."

Greer said he grew up in Winston, N.M., where a good rain would knock out phone service, and sometimes power.
