A tragic tree-trimming accident in Apple Valley claims a 26-year-old worker’s life after a hydraulic grapple, operated by 34-year-old Christopher Boone Crimmins, fatally crushed his head. Allegedly playing with shadows cast by the equipment, Crimmins didn’t realize the real grapple was closing in — a fatal mistake witnessed by others. Now facing second-degree manslaughter charges, Crimmins is jailed with a $40K bail and set for court on September 10th. A sobering reminder: even playful moments on the job can turn deadly.
