Bulldozer Rollover!

West Valley City Utah, January 30, 2102

A heavy equipment operator was critically injured when the bulldozer he was operating went off a 40' drop and rolled. The driver a 50 year old male was thrown from the vehicle as it rolled. The bulldozer ended upright, but a piece of the dozer detached and had the driver partially pinned. When fire fighters arrived they extricated the patient and stabilized him on scene. Air Med was called in to fly the patient to a trauma center. The patient was in very critical condition when he left the scene. Authorities from MSHA were en route to investigate the incident. Remember Be Smart... Be Safe... BE READY! Fire Marshal Bob
