Investigation Summary
An incident occurred as Employee #1 and Employee #2 were manually felling the trunk of a tree that had previously been limbed and topped. As the trunk began to fall toward Employee #1, Employee #2, stepped in to help by pushing on the trunk. When it became obvious the trunk was going to fall toward Employee #1, Employee #2 attempted to grab Employee #1, and pull him out of the way. Both Employee #1 and Employee #2 were struck by the falling tree trunk and knocked to the ground. Both Employee #1 and Employee #2 sustained lacerations and punctures, and were taken to a local hospital.
