The Edmonton Journal reports that a 60 year old man died earlier this week after falling from a one-ton truck in Grande Prairie.
The paper says the incident occurred around 1:30 p.m. when the Tradesmen Enterprises employee was loading scaffolding equipment on the back of the flatbed truck.
He reportedly fell nearly two metres off the back of the truck, and was treated for a head trauma by paramedics, but later passed away in hospital.
