58-year old Ricky L. McCurry from Manchester died this week after the bulldozer he was operating at Eagleville High School in Rutherford County somehow overturned.
Officials with the Tennessee Highway Patrol said McCurry was killed when his bulldozer overturned and landed on top of him.
Because of the severe injuries McCurry received, officials decided not to airlift the Coffee County man but instead transport him to Saint Thomas Rutherford Hospital in Murfreesboro by ambulance, where he was pronounced dead.
Multiple agencies, including the THP, Rutherford County Sheriff’s Office and the Tennessee Operational Safety and Health Administration were investigating the incident.
