Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was using a scissor lift to power wash the side of a building. He either tried to move the lift while it was extended and hit a depression in the concrete, or the lift was buffeted by strong winds. The lift tipped over and Employee #1 fell approximately 20 ft to the ground. He sustained head and internal injuries, from which he died later that night. There were no witnesses to this accident.
