At approximately 2:30 p.m. on October 3, 2006, Employee #1 was driving an Ingersoll-Rand, Model Number VR 843, Rough Terrain forklift downhill on a paved road.

His legs were crushed under the Rollover Protection System. He was hospitalized at the John Muir Trauma Center, for crush injuries to both legs. One of his legs was amputated at the trauma center.
