Investigation Summary
On August 26, 2011, Employee #1 was servicing an industrial riding lawnmower that was equipped with a mower deck that extended forward of its front wheels. He parked the mower on a flat surface with the mower deck extending over a sloped area to facilitate access the bottom of the mower deck. When the mower rolled forward, it struck Employee #1. A coworker discovered him pinned below the mower deck. After emergency responders extricated Employee #1, he was pronounced dead at the scene by a deputy coroner.
