On September 16, 2013, Employee #1, of Knife River Construction, was performing flagging operations as part of a roadway construction project.

A second vehicle, travelling approximately 40 to 45 MPH, passed the first vehicle on the right and struck Employee #1. Emergency services were called, and Employee #1 was transported to the hospital, where she was admitted and treated for a shoulder fracture. She spent more than 24 hours in the hospital.
