Employee died due to fall

At approximately 10:13 a.m. on May 22, 2003, Employee #1, a firefighter, was assisting a truck driver to move a palm tree, while standing on the deck of a flatbed trailer. For some reason, he fell off one of the sides of the trailer and hit his head. Employee #1 was hospitalized and treated for a serious head injury. A detailed investigation determined that this accident did not occur while in the line of duty and therefore was determined "not work related." Employee #1 died eleven days later.
