Investigation Summary
On March 30, 2005, Employee #1 unloaded a fork truck from a flatbed trailer at the Extreme Green Company in Syracuse, Indiana. Apparently, the fork truck was being driven off the trailer in a forward direction, down the ramps, at the back of the trailer. It appeared that Employee #1 got the right rear wheel off the ramp, causing the fork truck to tip over. Employee #1 was pinned between the ground and the top of the roll cage. He was killed. Employee #1 was not wearing the seat belt on the truck.
