Investigation Summary

Gasoline leaked out, releasing fumes that were ignited by a spark from some source. Employee #1 was not wearing a static spark control wrist strap or protective clothing. The electrical power had been de-energized, but not locked out or tagged out. Employee #1 was burned to death.
