Akron crane accident demonstrates how quickly serious injury can occur
The Brubaker family hired Barberton Tree Service Inc. to remove a large tulip tree behind their Pershing Street home. The accident occurred on Tuesday, July 20 at about 12:30 p.m. The crane became unbalanced during the tree removal and fell onto the Brubaker’s home.
Investigators from the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration were at the Akron home of Tracy Brubaker on Wednesday hoping to determine what caused the accident.
Investigators say it is possible that the tree was too heavy for the crane. When the crane started attempted to lift it, the computer may have sensed the load was too heavy for the machine and automatically shut it down to prevent the operator from lifting the tree.
A larger crane was on its way to the home the crane toppled over and went through the Brubaker's roof.
Damages to the building are estimated at $70,000, with another $15,000 for the value of contents. Fortunately, no injuries were reported after the crane crash.
