Investigation Summary
On February 13, 2006, Employee #1 and Employee #2 were repairing a two-story apartment building that was used as adult day care center. Employee #1 and Employee #2 were on an extended ladder that was approximately 20-ft long, hauling up metal pipe for pumping asphalt to the roof. As they were maneuvering the metal pipe, it came into contact with a high voltage line that was above the building. Both Employee #1 and Employee #2 were electrocuted, causing Employee #1 to fall to a concrete sidewalk. Employee #2 was able to hold on to the roof until emergency services arrived. Both Employee #1 and Employee #2 were transported to the hospital. At the hospital, Employee #1 was pronounced dead and Employee #2 was hospitalized and treated for his injury.
