Investigation Summary
At 9:00 a.m. on May 21, 2020, an employee was working at a steel mill. He was operating a remotely operated overhead crane to load steel coils onto a flatbed trailer. He was retrieving the ticket on a 13,150-kilogram (29,000-lb) coil that was suspended from the crane. For unknown reasons, the crane moved. The employee was crushed between the suspended coil and a second steel coil that was located on the floor behind him. He was killed.
