CCFD is on site at the accident, which Rocha described as a horrible industrial accident.
Witnesses in the area say the accident appears to be a trench collapse.
CCFD has to first stabilize the scene before they can recover the body. There is no identification or confirmed gender of the victim.
The Corpus Christi Fire Department responded to a trench collapse Monday near Buccaneer Stadium that killed at least one person.
The fire department responded to an emergency call around noon at the location near Leopard Street and Buddy Lawrence Drive. When fire crews got on scene, they quickly realized that instead of a rescue, they were going to be involved in a body recovery, Corpus Christi fire Chief Robert Rocha said.
At 2 p.m., fire department rescue experts, trench rescue experts, and hazmat experts were trying to secure the site so firefighters could enter to retrieve the body.
The victim has not yet been identified. Rocha said there was construction down the street and those workers were involved in the collapse.
