Investigation Summary
On August 6, 2002, Employee #1 was using a bucket truck to lift old parking lot lighting/lamps. He was lifting and rotating the boom when the bucket truck tipped over. Employee #1 sustained injuries in the turnover accident and was transported to a medical center, where he was hospitalized for treatment and postoperative care. He had not deployed the outriggers before beginning operations; the weight and angle of the boom caused the truck to become unstable and overturn.
