Investigation Summary
On October 2, 2002, Employees #1 through #3 were placing concrete at a bridge construction site when the concrete pump contacted an overhead power line. The line burned through and the two pieces fell into the concrete pour area, contacting the metal reinforcement material on which the men were standing. All three received high voltage electric shocks, and one suffered an exit wound to his hand that required stitches to close. Employees #1 through #3 were hospitalized.
