Patrolman Schneider, of the Street Inspection Squad, was killed when he fell through stairs of a building he was inspecting. Patrolman Schneider noticed a lot of construction material in the street in front of 221 West 28th Street in Manhattan and entered the building to talk to the contractor. As he walked across two narrow planks to gain access to the basement he fell through them to the basement floor striking his head. Patrolman Schneider died before an ambulance could arrive.
Patrolman Schneider had been with the agency for six years.
