Investigation Summary
At approximately 3:00 p.m. on July 5, 2016, Employee #1 was assisting a truck driver to back up a 62,000 pound Freightliner truck with a rear loader garbage body attached. While Employee #1 directed the driver from the passenger side of the vehicle, the truck driver was alternating between watching Employee #1 and checking her driver-side mirror for possible obstacles in the street. As the truck passed through an intersection, the driver felt a slight bump. Employee #1 was not visible from the passenger side mirror, alerting the driver to put the truck in park and check the truck's rear. Upon inspection, Employee #1 was found crushed under the passenger side rear tires. Employee #1 died as a result of his injury.
