Event: 06/09/2003
Employee killed when crushed by dump truck bed

Employee #1 was replacing the rear stabilizer bar on a tandem dump truck. The dump bed was raised and the safety support was in place when the lift hydraulics for the dump bed failed. This allowed the weight of the bed to rest on the safety support bracket which also failed, causing the bed to come down, crushing and killing the employee.
