One employee is killed and other incurs unspecified injuries

At 12:00 a.m. on May 21, 2020, two employees were working to lay down road construction signs to open the road back up. Employee #1 left the work vehicle to lay down a lane-ends merge sign while Employee #2 stayed in the work truck. At some point, a tractor trailer struck the work truck from behind. This caused the work truck to be moved forward, strike and kill Employee #1 and injure Employee #2, who was sitting in the passenger seat. Employee #2 was treated for the unspecified injuries at a local hospital and released.
