Investigation Summary
Employee #1, who worked for his brother's business, was driving a skidder to bring cut logs to the loading deck at a 30-acre logging site near Lumberton, NC. After completing this task, Employee #1 was standing and walking around at the loading deck. At the same time, his brother finished loading a log truck, which then became stuck in the mud at the landing. The brother got into the skidder and tried once to push the truck out of the mud. Employee #1 was behind the skidder as his brother backed up for a second attempt to push the log truck free. He did not see Employee #1 behind the vehicle and backed into him, knocking him into a pile of logs, and then running over him with the left rear wheel. Employee #1 was killed.
