Investigation Summary
At approximately 12:35 p.m. on June 28, 1988, Employee #1, a forklift supervisor for Ward Brothers & Halstead Lumber Co., was unloading 60 units of pallet material 3 by 4s, (144 pieces per unit) from a 40 ft International flatbed truck. He was operating a model V-120 forklift, serial #60W00449. He unloaded a unit of 3 by 4s, taking them to the northwest corner of the stockyard. At the docking area, the employee got off the forklift, placed a piece of 2 by 4 blocking material on the left underside of the unit, and was walking toward the rear of the forklift to get another 2 by 4 to block the right underside. A coworker operating a model V-100 forklift, serial #60W369, had unloaded a unit and was backing and turning slightly to the right when he collided with the V-120 forklift, crushing Employee #1 between the two vehicles. He later died as a result of injuries sustained in the accident.
