Investigation Summary
At approximately 2:50 p.m. on November 29, 2012, Employee #1, an equipment operator, was assisting Employee #2, a city code enforcement officer, to connect a trailer. The employees were in a vehicle storage yard located on city property. Employee #2 was operating a 2000 Ford Expedition (Vin Number: FMPU16L6YLB5174) and Employee #1 was standing behind the vehicle guiding her to the trailer hitch. Employee #2 mistakenly hit the gas pedal instead of the breaks and pinned the Employee #1 between the back of her vehicle and the side of a vehicle that was parked behind it. Employee #1 was taken to an area hospital, where she was treated for a fractured pelvis and hip bone. The employee remained hospitalized for two weeks.
