5 Year Old Child Killed In Forklift Accident | Pennsylvania Injury Law News – Legal Examiner

January 14, 2022 by Injury Law

According to the Colbert County Coroner, a kid passed away after an incident involving a forklift at a warehouse facility in Muscle Shoals Saturday morning.

On Saturday, December 18, Muscle Shoals Cops responded to a call that included 2 minors. According to authorities, the event took place at the moms and dads’ location of work on Boone Road situated on Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) appointment.

2 of the children slipped away from their moms and dads to play inside a storage facility, where they found a forklift, according to officers. According to detectives, the older of the 2 kids was running the forklift when the smaller sized child fell off.

According to authorities, investigators found the event was an accident after a thorough examination. Due to the child’s age, the body was carried to the Alabama Department of Forensic Sciences. The autopsy, according to police, proved the investigators’ conclusions.

The Dangers Of Forklift Accidents

Forklifts are dangerous makers that cause injuries and deaths. Employees need to be aware of the risks connected with operating them. OSHA estimates that about 110,000 forklift-related mishaps happen yearly. An American worker dies due to a forklift-related incident every 3 days. Mishaps cost business money, too. On average, accidents cost companies $48,000 per disabling injury and $1,400,000 per casualty.
