Investigation Summary
On October 13, 2010, Employee #1 and a coworker were conducting demolition activities on concrete truck weigh station pads. The coworker was operating a Bobcat S175 skid steer with compatible Bobcat jackhammer attachment. Employee #1 was removing material from the area while assisting in the demolition activities. He attempted to remove a piece of rebar that measured 10 feet in length. One end of the rebar was still attached to the concrete pad. To assist Employee #1, the coworker used the jackhammer of the Bobcat skid steer to hammer the lodged end of the rebar. Employee #1 was holding the opposite end of the rebar with both hands while the hammer struck the steel. Employee #1 lost his grip on the rebar. He was struck on the right side of the head by the vibrating rebar, and was knocked to the ground. He was transported to a local hospital by ambulance services, where he died from his injuries.
