Investigation Summary
On March 17, 2010, the Employee #1, the employer of the company, was checking a rear differential on a Jeep Cherokee. The Cherokee was on a lift in Bay 1, and Employee #2 was in the vehicle pressing the gas pedal to simulate running the vehicle at 25 mph. The vehicle suddenly stopped, and Employee #2 called to Employee #1 with no response. Employee #1 climbed down from the vehicle and found Employee #1 not breathing with his shirt entangled in the drive shaft. Employee #2 called 911 and started CPR. Medics arrived and took Employee #1 to the hospital. Employee #1's neck was broken.
