At 3:15 p.m. on March 5, 2021, Employee #1 and his coworkers were in the process of cutting and removing a mature 70-foot tall pine tree. All processes were pre -established with a verbal plan on how the tree was to be felled to include the drop zone.

At that s ame time, the employee entered into the drop zone without a helmet and was struc k on the head by the limb. The employee died from the head trauma. | ||||||
