>>A construction worker plunged four stories to his death yesterday

>>Jabby's co-worker, Mahamadou Dukureh, managed to grab a rope and

>>"He fell down, face down. He said nothing. He didn't scream," said
>>Dukureh, 28, who had worked with Jabby, a West African immigrant,
>>for
>>about a year. "It's terrible, just terrible."
>>Jabby moved to the U.S. from Gambia about six years ago, said his

>>"He was a very hardworking, good man. He was all about his family

>>windows on the building facade.
>>A city Buildings Department spokeswoman said the work being done
