| At approximately 2:00 p.m. on February 1, 2011, Employee #1, a 55-year-old male with K & K Forest Prod Llc., was performing logging operations with two other coworkers.

The coworker yelled to Employee #1 that the tree was falling toward him. Employee #1 tried to run but did not get out of the way in time. Another coworker tried to drive the skidder under the falling tree but did not make it there in time.
