Employee is killed when boom system overturns

At 2:00 p.m. on August 26, 2015, Employee #1 was operating a Ford L9000 truck with snooper boom attachment for bridge inspections. The employee let the bridge inspectors out of the basket onto the bridge's deck with a jersey barrier system. Employee #1 was adjusting the boom and basket so that the truck and boom system could be moved to a different location on the same bridge deck. The truck and boom system overturned while being moved, crushing Employee #1 between the truck and the jersey barrier, killing him.
