Cause of employee's death unknown

Employee #1, age 39, was helping his brother-in-law, owner of Collin Electric, take down fluorescent lighting fixtures. He was standing on a fiberglass stepladder equipped with a safety shoe. An employee of A Cut Above heard a noise similar to a falling ladder, then saw Employee #1 with his hands clenched and pressed to his chest. Employee #1 said in Spanish: "I am O.K. Don't worry." Then he fell suddenly to the concrete floor. The paramedics were called. Employee #1 was pronounced dead on arrival at USC County Hospital. There was no violation of T8CCR, as the employer did not have any employees and is the sole owner of the company. Furthermore, the cause of Employee #1's death was undetermined.
