At approximately 7:41 a.m. on April 2, 2009, a 29-year old truck driver was fatally injured when he was pinned between the operator's cab outside railing and the truck dump body (bed) of the Caterpillar 777F truck he was operating. The victim, searching for the location of an oil leak, parked the truck on level ground, left the engine idling, and with the dump body in a raised position left the operator's cab. Standing on the walkway outside the operators cab, he leaned over the 42 inch high railing to observe where the oil leak might be located. The dump body dropped, crushing the victim between the railing and the dump body.
