Investigation Summary
At 1:00 p.m. on February 13, 2017, an employee was working in a trench that measured 20 feet wide by 10 feet deep. The employee, who was a bricklayer, was connecting pipes and working with troll and mortar. The trench had a protective steel trench box in place. As the employee, for an unknown reason, stepped outside the confines of the trench box, a 3 foot by 2 foot piece of clay became dislodged and struck the employee in the head. He suffered craniocerebral trauma, which he was hospitalized and treated for his injury. However, the employee died from complications from his injuries.
