Investigation Summary
At approximately 2:30 p.m. on June 28, 1991, Employee #1 was attempting to straighten out a bent rear section of the body of a Mack R685 12-yard dump truck. Employee #1 had propped open its tailgate with a piece of wood and was hitting the metal with a sledge hammer. The piece of wood that was holding open the gate dislodged and the heavy metal tailgate closed on the employee, crushing him between the truck and the tailgate. He was taken to the hospital where he died from his injuries.
