“Last night at 9:15 the police department was notified of some type of a medical emergency behind Federal Mogul at 1500 Freeman Avenue. Athens Fire Department, Athens Limestone Ambulance Service and police officers responded. When emergency personal arrived they found a man had been run over by a forklift. Allen Michael Brown 25 of Athens was pronounced dead by Limestone County Coroner Mike West a short time later. At this time we know Brown was walking in front of the forklift possibly securing an empty barrel. Were still investigating in an attempt to determine what occurred next to cause the fork lift to run over brown. Our investigation into this case will continue over the next several days. At this time it appears this was an accident. I will update you with any additional information when it’s available.”
