Investigation Summary
On July 23, 2009, workers were mating two sections of a modular home. The sections had been set on pilings which measured approximately 8 feet in height. A foreman directed workers to place a tarp over the seam where the two sections mated because a storm was moving towards their location and the final assembly could not be completed before the work day ended. At approximately 3:20 p.m., Employee #1 and a coworker were placing the tarp when lightning struck Employee #1. Workers moved Employee #1 across the street to a covered patio at a church and emergency responders were summoned. A fire service crew administered CPR to Employee #1, who was transported to a hospital. He remained in coma until he was removed from life support and died on July 27, 2009.
