ACTIVITY: Crew was working on a solar project.

INCIDENT SUMMARY: A local flagging contractor experienced a terrible incident where a random stranger driving by the jobsite offered two flaggers bottled water due to the high heat temperatures. Apparently, the water bottles given to the flaggers were laced with Fentanyl.

STATUS: Sadly, one of the flaggers died and the other is in critical condition after ingesting the water.

POTENTIAL MITIGATION(S):

  • Provide the entire crew with an adequate amount of water and shade options, especially when the temperatures are high.
  • Advise employees to not accept any outside liquids, food, or any other items from strangers to ensure their own safety from outside hazards or contaminants.
