Investigation Summary
At 3:45 p.m., Employee #1 arrived at a dump site with a load of fill dirt from Derr Valley, about 7 miles away. While backing his truck to the dumping spot, he stopped, dismounted, and crawled under it. His clothing apparently became caught on a set screw for the power take-off, pulling his left arm around the pto drive shaft. Employee #1's upper body was pulled into the frame of the truck, breaking his neck. He was killed. There were no witnesses to the accident.
