Investigation Summary
At approximately 4:27 p.m. on July 7, 2004, Employee #1 was watching a basketball mast being taken down on a playground at an elementary school. His truck was being used to bend over the masts after they were pre-cut at their base, using a rope tied between the support post and the truck. At the time of the accident, the truck was beginning to pull on a mast when it fell in a different direction than expected. The post struck Employee #1's leg, fracturing it. He was transported to the hospital, where he underwent surgery and was treated for one week. Employee #1 was observing the removal of the masts and he thought he was situated at a safe distance.
