Investigation Summary
On November 20, 2007, Employee #1 and coworkers were working off of barges in a river when he apparently fell off one of the vessels. He was discovered missing after a head count by the employer. A search turned up Employee #1's life jacket and hard hat in the connex box. His work jacket was discovered 1-1/2 miles downstream, and his body was found by a fisherman 11 days later. He had apparently drowned in the river.
