Investigation Summary
On December 20, 2004, Employee #1, of Bruno's Snow & Ice Control, Inc., was working alone, operating a Ford F-550 dump truck with a hydraulically operated Swenson salt spreading attachment. After he finished his job of salting a customer's parking lot, he drove the truck back to the salt pile in the corner of the parking lot and dumped the leftover salt. Employee #1 was found dead inside the salt spreader with his clothing wrapped around an auger. The truck was still running when he was found. The medical examiner determined that Employee #1 was suffocated when his clothing became bound in the auger.
