Investigation Summary
At 11:30 a.m. on November 14, 2007, Employee #1 was working as a laborer on a road crew. A coworker operating a Case 580 loader-backhoe, serial #326, was instructed to rotate the boom out of the street so cars could pass by. The coworker climbed onto the backhoe and was beginning to move the boom when the machine moved forward and the backhoe's front-end loader struck Employee #1, crushing him against the bed of a dump truck. He was killed.
