Investigation Summary
At 5:00 p.m. on May 31, 1995, Employee #1 and six coworkers, of Jose Elizondo O, Inc., were riding in the back of a pickup truck. They were returning from a tomato field where they had been moving sprinkler lines to the land owner's shop. The driver of the pickup truck stopped by an irrigation canal and the employees got out to wash up.

Employee #1's coworkers heard him yelling. Although none of the coworkers could swim, two coworkers jumped in but nearly drowned. Employee #1 drowned.
