Security officer killed in freak accident http://www.privateofficer.com
Laurel County KY July 29 2008
A security guard at a Laurel County business was killed Monday night when a gate he was closing fell on him.
Billy Thomas, 50, a security guard for Health Directors, was working at ECO Tech of Kentucky in East Bernstadt. London Police say Thomas was making his rounds when he discovered a security gate open to the lot.
Police say Thomas then apparently closed the gate, which weighs approximately 600 pounds, past it’s stopping point. He turned his back when the gate fell, and it struck him in the back of the head, killing him instantly.
Thomas worked for Health Directors for 12 years.
