Investigation Summary
On November 13, 2012, Employee #1, the co-owner and operator of Forever Green Tree Solutions LLC., along with Employee #2, were delivering a load of firewood to a customer. After backing a 1988 Ford F-600 Dump Truck into position, the load was dumped. Employee #2 who was operating the vehicle then attempted to lower the bed; however it would not lower to its full down position. Employee #1 instructed Employee #2 to pull forward a few feet and raise the bed all the way while he attempted to find the cause. For unknown reasons, the bed fell crushing Employee #1's head between the truck frame and dump bed. No means of secondary support had been engaged prior to Employee #1 entering the area. Employee #2 told local police he had remained in truck and after hearing a loud crash got out to find Employee #1 lying on the ground. Police do not suspect foul play and could not find a reason for the bed failure.
