Investigation Summary
Employee #1 and coworkers were working in and adjacent to a trench during the installation of a 5,600 lb storm drain pipe. As the load was raised overhead, the pipe spun out of control and struck Employee #1 in the chest. He suffered multiple internal injuries and was killed. There were no tag lines in use at the site and the lifting components were inadequate for the load.
