Abstract: At approximately 2:15 p.m. on January 12, 1996, Employee #1 was directing a dump truck to a spot where it could unload. He was facing south, the same direction as the dump truck was moving. A bulldozer operator was facing north and had been moving the bulldozer back and forth. The truck driver was watching Employee #1's hand signals in the truck's rear mirror. According to the truck driver, the last time he looked up the bulldozer was in front of the employee. The bulldozer ran over Employee #1's body, his neck, and part of his head. Employee #1 died on December 30, 1995, during surgery at Baptist Memorial Hospital, Golden Triangle, Columbus, MS.
