Abstract: At approximately 8:55 a.m. on November 21, 2009, Employee #1, a delivery truck driver, was making a meat delivery to a restaurant. He parked his truck (Make: UD, Model Number: 2600, California license: 6J91448) in the alleyway behind the restaurant. A witness observed the truck begin to roll slowly in a southbound direction, while Employee #1 attempted to open the right side passenger door. He was unable to open the passenger door and was then observed running in front of the truck toward the driver's door. He was pinned between the truck's left front tire and a cinder block wall and steel barrier pole on the eastside of the alleyway. Los Angeles City Fire paramedics responded to the scene at 9:00 a.m. and transported Employee #1 to UCLA Westwood Hospital. They arrived at the hospital at 9:19 a.m. and Employee #1 was pronounced dead at 9:23 a.m. The investigation revealed that the manual transmission vehicle had not been placed in gear and had been left unattended without setting the parking brake.
