Investigation Summary
Employee #1 and a coworker were applying plastic wrap around a pallet of boxes. The operation was being performed in a passageway designated for material handling equipment. Employee #1 apparently tripped and fell, striking the right side of a straddle carrier between the front and rear wheels. The operator of the straddle carrier heard witnesses to the accident scream and stopped the carrier momentarily; he then reversed the carrier a few feet. Employee #1 was crushed to death when the front right tire rolled over his chest.
