Investigation Summary
At 3:14 p.m. on August 27, 2017, Employee #1 , the Fire Captain, was inside the fire engine cab, seated in the passenger seat. The fire truck was returning to the station on Highway 50. The employee unbuckled his seatbelt in order to remove his turnout coat, while seated in the moving fire engine. He removed his headset and turned to hang it behind him. At that moment, his pant leg inadvertently opened the door as they were traveling around a sharp left hand bend in the road, and Employee #1 was ejected from the cab. The employee landed on the asphalt of the street and sustained a severe concussion and laceration to the back of his head. He was hospitalized for his injuries.
