The skid steer was equipped with a reel attachment to roll up a 12 inch diameter lay flat hose used for water transfer during fracking operations. While rolling up the hose, it swung behind the skid steer, broke the window, and the metal head attached to the hose end struck the employee in the head. The employee was killed by severe head trauma.
