Investigation Summary

At 3:30 p.m. on August 19, 2020, an employee was dispatched to an area to deenergize and remove a fallen power line from the road way so that a tree crew could get past the area to remove a fallen tree blocking the road further ahead. While waiting for the employee, a supervisor from the tree crew drove down the road to see where the employee was and found him slumped over in his truck. The supervisor from the tree crew called 911 and started CPR. The paramedics arrived shortly after and continued to try to revive the employee. The employee was transported to the nearest hospital, where he died. The employee suffered a heart attack associated with a pre-existing medical condition.
