Investigation Summary
On September 12, 2006, Employee #1 was working as an asphalt road crew supervisor, operating a backhoe/tractor at a road construction site on Highway 61. Having completed a cut in the newly laid asphalt, he was driving the tractor in the grass parallel to the highway. There was a steep incline on the side of the highway, and Employee #1 lost control, possibly when attempting to turn the tractor. It is believed the tractor slid down the incline along a path perpendicular to the highway. The tractor stopped when it encountered a concrete culvert. Employee #1 sustained severe trauma to his leg, chest, and head, from being struck either by the tractor or by the concrete culvert. He was killed.
