As spring begins and the economy contrinues to strengthen, many construction workers will be returning to work. Large projects and developments can often lead to worker safety hazards or require working with dangerous or defective equipment. In the above incident, not only was the worker forced into a dangerous and unsafe situation, but he also fell victim to a faulty product.

A 2-day-old baby survived a crash that killed his mother, father and 3-year-old brother.
Missouri Highway Patrol Sgt. Paul Reinsh said the family of four from Eldon was traveling west on Missouri 52 in Miller County, 100 miles north of Springfield, when an eastbound Toyota moved into their lane.
“The one vehicle just crossed the center line and they hit pretty much head-on,” Reinsh said, noting it was sunny and clear when the crash happened at 1:40 p.m. Tuesday. “As far as I know, the weather was not a factor.”

On the day jury selection was to begin in a wrongful death lawsuit in the case of a 16-year-old St. Joseph boy who died when he was hit by a school bus , a multi-million dollar settlement was reached.
Mason Adams was s truck by a First Student Inc., school bus on Nov. 15, 2010 when walking to school. He was about three-tenths of a mile from Lafayette High School, where he was a junior.
Mason’s mother filed the wrongful death lawsuit against First Student and the bus driver, and were awarded a $5 million judgment on Monday.
In First Student taking responsibility for Mason’s death, his mother, Bridget Blasi, got what she really wanted, according to an email from her attorney.
Blasi spoke with 41 Action News Reporter Beth Vaughn in front of the Buchanan County Courthouse. She said, “I had been waiting on an apology. I had been waiting on them to say ‘We’re responsible for your son’s death.’ Today, they finally said that.”
Blasi is hoping to use the settlement money to build a baseball park in St. Joseph and to continue a scholarship fund in Mason’s name.
She explained tearfully, “Mason was #24. He was a competitive baseball player and he loved baseball.”
Blasi imagined what Mason might say to her now, saying, “You did it Mom. You fought for me and for what’s right and I’m so proud of you.”
We did some checking, and the St. Joseph School District pays First Student about three million dollars per year for its service. The company owns 60,000 buses nation-wide that is uses in 42 states.
Video was released for the first time Monday showing the bus driver, Tracey Jones, entering a fogged and frosted bus. The video shows Jones leaving the bus barn before clearing the windows. Shortly thereafter, Adams was struck and killed.
Attorney Michael Kuckelman explained what he’s argued for the past year, “A bus driver driving a 26,000 pound bus down the streets of St. Joseph with frost or dew on the windows, when she can’t see out, is like a 26,000 pound missile going down St. Joseph Avenue.”
He continued, “I think the amount of the settlement speaks volumes to how bad the case was.”
The St. Joseph School District tells 41 Action News it’s undecided if First Student will provide its transportation next year. The district is in the midst of a bidding process that is slated to end next week.
First Student refused to comment on the settlement.

More than 20,000 John Deere lawn tractors are being recalled by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and equipment manufacturer John Deere.
The voluntary recalls includes:
- 15,500 lawn tractors — D100, D110, D120, and D130. The hardware that holds the mower blade brake assemblies can fail, posing a laceration hazard.
- 5,200 D100 lawn tractors in which the brake assembly to the transmission housing can break and send the tractor out of control.
These tractors were sold at John Deere dealers, Lowe’s, and Home Depot stores nationwide from October 2010 until September 2011. The D100 tractor was not sold in California. No injuries have been reported.
Last October, Deere recalled 6,450 EZtrak Zero Turn Lawn Mowers because the steering lever could lock and remain in drive.
For additional information, call Deere & Company at (800) 537-8233, or visit the company’s recall website.

The Missouri State Highway Patrol said a father and son were killed when a dump truck was struck by an oncoming train near Seymour.
Gary Lee, 58, and Chad Lee, 34, were pronounced dead at the scene on Oak Lawn Road, just south of U.S. 60, according to a highway patrol crash report.
The 1990 International dump truck, driven by Chad Lee, was southbound when it failed to yield to the eastbound Burlington Northern locomotive, according to the report.
The highway patrol noted the railroad crossing is signaled by crossbucks. Neither control arms nor lights are used at the crossing to warn drivers of oncoming trains.

Springfield, MO—
The Paul Mueller Company has released the name of an employee who died after being seriously injured earlier Thursday.

An investigation continues into an outbreak of E. coli in the St. Louis region.
The Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services says 24 of 34 specimens examined so far have tested positive for shiga toxin, which is a byproduct of E. coli, and testing of the other specimens is still ongoing.
Definitive testing for E. coli is expected to take several more days.
Officials still don’t know the cause of the outbreak that has sickened people ranging in age from 4 to 94 in St. Louis city and four surrounding counties.
E. coli is typically spread through consumption of contaminated food. Symptoms include severe stomach cramps, diarrhea or nausea. In rare cases it can be fatal.

Springfield firefighters encountered extremely high levels of dangerous carbon monoxide gas during a fire on November 1 at the John Twitty Energy Center.
The toxic gas sent three CU workers to the hospital with varying degrees of carbon monoxide poisoning, according to CU. Assistant Fire Chief Randy Villines said Springfield firefighters are required to put on air packs when carbon monoxide levels reach 50 parts per million or more.
But fire crews found carbon monoxide readings of up to 3,000 parts per million when they tested the air near a burning coal bunker. “Holy cow, that’s some serious readings,” said Villines as he reviewed a fire department report about the incident. Three CU workers battled the smoldering blaze that ignited inside three of four coal bunkers before Springfield fire crews reached the site. On November 2, CU still was declining to identify the three employees or their conditions, citing a federal privacy law.

A massive explosion at a grain elevator in northeastern Kansas has claimed six lives, authorities said Monday.
Following the explosion Saturday night, two other employees with extensive injuries were flown to hospitals. Four more employees who were at the facility escaped the incident unharmed or with minor injuries, officials said.
Authorities continued to investigate the cause of the blast on Monday but city officials had released a statement earlier noting that dust from milled grain can be explosive under certain conditions, especially during dry weather when dust particles are highly combustible.
The city’s statement also pointed out that rescue operations in such explosions can be difficult because workers are often scattered through the facility, making them difficult to locate. The force of the Saturday-night blast at Bartlett Grain Company in Atchison, Kansas, was felt by people up to three miles away, city officials said.
