Sawmill Worker Is Killed When Blades Strike Head

At approximately 8:30 a.m. on February 8, 2007, Employee #1 was working at a sawmill.

A coworker operating the edger saw Employee #1 entering the area under the edger and called to him to stop. The coworker turned the edger off, but it continued to rotate for up to forty-five seconds, during which time Employee #1 was struck. His head came in contact with one or more blades, causing several large lacerations. He was killed.
