Investigation Summary
At approximately 8:39 a.m. on June 15, 1999, Employee #1 and a coworker were using a rough-terrain forklift to lift precast stone. Employee #1 was standing on a wooden pallet with the stone while his coworker used a forklift to raise the pallet 22 ft to the edge of the building. The coworker was attempting to reposition the lift and had backed up to the edge of the soil bank when the rear wheel on the driver's side went over the bank. The forklift tipped completely over. The coworker jumped from the cab onto the bank. Employee #1, who was wearing a body harness with a lanyard that was secured to the carriage, was crushed under the forks and carriage. He was killed.
