Investigation Summary
At approximately 3:30 p.m. on February 27, 2012, three employees were removing a dead tree from the right-of-way path for an electrical company. Employee #1, along with a coworker, was holding a rope to hold tension on the tree while another coworker was cutting the base of tree. As the tree began to fall, Employee #1 and the coworker let go of the tension line. The coworker moved back from the falling tree but Employee #1 ran towards the falling tree, which struck him. Employee #1, a 36-year-old male, was pronounced dead at the scene of the accident.
