On December 30, 2009, Employee #1 was working on an I-beam 20 ft above ground level bolting up. In the next bay, two coworkers were getting ready to tie-in another I-beam into the one located directly above the beam on which Employee #1 was sitting. The beam, 15 ft above Employee #1 was held in place by two bolts, but no nuts. The two coworkers tried to marry the two beams together which knocked the two bolts out of the beam above Employee #1. The beam fell and struck the beam Employee #1 was on, crushing and killing him.
