A construction worker trying to help free a stuck semi was killed on April 1 when the truck backed over him. The truck, pulling a flatbed load of concrete pipe, got stuck on a muddy dirt road. Kevin Armstrong, a site manager for Cooper River Construction, went behind the truck to attach a chain so a bulldozer could pull the truck free. The truck driver failed to verify the location of Mr. Armstrong, put the truck in reverse, and backed over him. Mr. Armstrong died at the scene.
Thanks to the Charleston, SC Post and Courier for reporting.
