A man said to be in his 30s was hit by falling ice at the corner of St. Clair and Yonge at noon hour Friday (February 7, 2014). Ice and snow on high levels of the office building on the northwest corner of the intersection melted in the sunny weather. The man was treated by EMS and allowed to go on his way. Lucky fellow. The very busy piece of sidewalk on St. Clair Ave W. continued to throng through the business day despite the yellow tape warning pedestrians away from the wall of the building, which houses NewsTalk Radio 1010. Signs every few feet on the windows of the Royal Bank branch warned of falling ice. CP24 had a camera positioned in the snow and cabled to its truck, which had the motor running by the curb. The crew was taking a page from the Boy Scouts — be prepared. Can’t tell when a lump is going to bounce outside the yellow tape and take out another citizen.
