Investigation Summary
At approximately 6:30 p.m. on April 17, 2006, Employees #1 and #2 were moving a climber rig into position on a tower crane that was located on the forty-sixth story of a hi-rise under construction. While they were hydraulically moving the climber up the frame of the crane, the climber fell, along with Employee #1, to the thirty-ninth floor where it struck a brace. Employee #2, who was wearing a personal fall arrest system, hung from the frame of the crane and received minor injuries. Emergency services were called, and Employees #1 and #2 were taken to a local hospital. Employee #1 was pronounced dead, and Employee #2 was hospitalized and treated for his injuries.
