At 12:25 a.m. on March 21, 2021, Employees #1 and #2 and a coworker, employed by a power and communication line construction company, were engaged in the constr uction of a power line tower. Employees #1 and #2 were working from a personnel basket hoisted by their coworker, a crane operator. They were installing the a rms of a monopole. As they adjusted the bracket, the personnel basket, which wa s not properly secured to the crane boom, fell off the boom. Employees #1 and # 2 fell with the personnel basket, a fall height of 150 feet. Employee #1 sustai ned blunt force trauma to the head and neck and was killed. Employee #2 was tra nsported by emergency services to the hospital, where he was admitted for treatm ent of multiple injuries including multiple fractures and fluid in the lungs.
