Investigation abstract
At 2:30 p.m. on July 10, 2023, an employee was vacuuming the passenger side front compartment of a compact car. A coworker pulled up behind the employee in a full-size Ford F150 pickup truck to detail the vehicle. The soles of the coworker's shoes were wet as the weather included heavy rain. The coworker's foot slipped off the brake and onto the accelerator causing the truck to hit the rear end of the compact car, knocking the employee to the ground. The truck subsequently ran over the employee with the front passenger tire before coming to a stop on top of the employee. The employee died from crushing injuries to his chest and neck.
