Investigation Summary
On Tuesday, August 30, 2005, Employee #1 was working as an amusement ride operator. Fifteen minutes before closing time, he was struck by the train of a roller coaster. A coworker who witnessed the accident told police investigators that Employee #1 was leaning over the ride's elevated track when he was struck. After being struck, he was face-down on the tracks with the first car of the Lady Bug Coaster stopped over his back. He had been left dangling two feet off the ground, with his upper torso pinned under the car. He was transported to Nassau County University Hospital, where he was pronounced dead at about 5:30 a.m. on August 31, 2005. The nature of his injury is not stated on the report, but a statement issued by the police said he sustained crushing injuries and blunt force trauma. An autopsy was scheduled for September 1, 2005.
