Flagler County, Florida Man Killed By Beverage Cart
January 21, 2010 – 5:00 amA golf course mechanic was killed in Flagler County, Florida (about an hour south of Jacksonville) after a beverage cart apparently slid off of a lift and pinned the victim, according to an article on News4Jax.com. Terry Curry died after another employee tried unsuccessfully to free him from the beverage cart.
In a wrongful death case resulting from a tragic accident like this, there are several factors to look at to determine why this incident occurred and who is responsible. A wrongful death attorney would look, of course, into why the beverage cart fell. Was it placed on the lift improperly? Was it safe to have this particular beverage on this particular lift? Was the lift properly inspected and maintained? Did someone place the cart on the lift so that it was a latent danger for Mr. Curry to work on the beverage cart?
In a serious wrongful death case involving heavy equipment such as this one, there may be many possible factors indicating that one or more parties were negligent and responsible for the tragic death.
