Police received a 911 call at about 6:40 a.m. Tuesday reporting that a worker had fallen from a ladder in the courtyard of the school on Rosemont Boulevard, near Chatelain Street.
The woman was unconscious when she was treated by paramedics at the scene and sent to hospital. A police spokesperson confirmed Tuesday afternoon that she succumbed to her injuries in hospital.
