Investigation Summary

Investigation Nr: 14492342
Event: 09/25/1993
Employee dies after trapped in a trench cave-in

Employee #1 was working inside a trench more than 5 feet deep in class C type soil. The vertical face trench was not protected with shoring or another protective system to prevent potential cave-ins. As he connected a sewer pipe, the trench collapsed and he was trapped by the falling soil and other debris. Attempts to free him by coworkers, police, and a fire department rescue squad failed. At approximately 10:30 a.m. he was pronounced dead at the scene from a fractured skull and contusion of the brain due to blunt trauma.
