Employee Is Killed in Fall from Vehicle Carrier

On September 10, 2008, Employee #1 was loading pick-up trucks and cars onto a vehicle carrier. He was using a ratchet bar to tighten the restraining devices, which held the vehicles in place on the carrier. It was not known if Employee #1 was attempting to climb on the lower level of the carrier, was standing on the lower level of the carrier, or was on the ladder that was fixed to the side of the carrier, when he fell. A coworker heard a loud noise when a ratchet bar struck the carrier and then the ground. Employee #1 died from a head injury.
