Abstract: At 6:00 a.m. on January 4, 2016, a worker was struck by a forklift and died. The worker was walking on a breezeway between two buildings as a forklift was transporting an empty dumpster back to its designated area. The forklift driver stopped at the stop sign, honked the horn of the forklift and looked both ways. As the driver accelerated through the breezeway between the two buildings, he felt something dragging under the forklift. The driver then stopped, backed up, and raised the fork tines to inspect what was dragging. The worker was found dead laying under the forklift.
