Investigation Summary
At approximately 7:45 a.m. on August 17, 1993, Employee #1 was banding a bundle of logs in a saddle or false bunk. A Raygo Wagner stacker (a large forklift) approached from the opposite side of the bundle to remove it from the saddle. The equipment operator didn't see Employee #1 and, while attempting to pick up the load, the equipment's forks and tusks struck Employee #1, who was killed instantly.
