On June 15, 1987, Rodney Petersen began the process of removing a limb from a tree in his back yard. He tied a rope onto the limb and fastened the other end of the rope to his truck. While Petersen was pulling on the limb, Hosien Kalell entered Petersen's backyard unannounced and grabbed the rope that connected the limb to the truck.
