[07-30-2024] San Joaquin County, CA – 48-Year-Old Man Killed After Work-Related Accident Near Tracy

A 48-year-old man was killed after a work-related accident near Tracy on Tuesday afternoon, July 30, 2024.

According to the South San Joaquin County Fire Authority, the incident happened at about 2:00 p.m. at the Tracy Material Recovery and Solid Waste Transfer Inc. site on MacArthur Drive.

Authorities said that one of the workers at the transfer station was run over by a tractor for some reason. It is still unclear how or where the incident occurred during the operation. Currently, no details are available about the circumstances of the accident.

The victim, later identified by the San Joaquin County Coroner’s Office as 48-year-old Carlos T. from Stockton, died at the scene. 

No additional details were provided at this time. The California Division of Occupational Safety and Health is currently investigating the official cause of the incident.

A GoFundMe campaign has since been established to support the family of the departed victim with funeral expenses.

Don’t Know What To Do After An Accident?

Your safety and rights depend on what you do next after an accident. Remember the following steps if you find yourself in one:

  • Check yourself for any injuries.
  • Stay on the scene, call 9-1-1, and wait for emergency responders.
  • Move your vehicle to the road shoulder if safe; turn on hazard lights.
  • Fully cooperate with law enforcement and stay until cleared to leave.
  • Document the scene and injuries with photos and videos.
  • Seek immediate medical attention.
  • Contact your insurance company and find a personal injury lawyer for legal advice.

What A Lawyer Can Do For You

Many victims put off calling a lawyer even if they sustain injuries after an accident. However, lawyers can help you in many ways. They can provide you with police reports, CCTV footage, and witness statements to strengthen your case. Your attorney will also negotiate with insurance companies to get you fair compensation. The best part is that they will do all of these things for you at no upfront cost. So if you’re injured in an accident, hire a personal injury attorney to recover medical bills, car repair costs, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
