On July 9, 2001, at the packing house unloading area of Phil Giba Farms, Employee #1 was cleaning the area around the hopper that the onions were dumped into.

Checking his mirrors, he did not see anyone. He began to pull forward to unload the second trailer. Employee #1 happened to be between the trailers when the driver pulled forward.
