Employee is killed after being struck and crushed by truck

At 2:00 p.m. on September 9, 2022, an employee was standing inside a closed electric gate trying to get the attention of a coworker who was outside the gate. Coworker #1 needed to be let in, but the gate required a code to open. Coworker #2 (the company owner) exited his white Chevrolet Colorado pickup truck and walked down to the gate to provide the code to the employee and Coworker #1. The truck began to roll down the driveway and struck the employee crushing and killing him. Coworker #2 had not put the truck into PARK prior to exiting the vehicle.
