Abstract: At 6:42 p.m. on November 1, 2020, an employee working as a bagger for an ice cream and frozen yogurt manufacturer was collecting popsicles as they exited the monster pop line machine # 1.

As the employee was performing his work, he placed his hands into the machine to remove product and wrappers that became stuck. After the employee had placed his hands in the machine several times, he contacted the knife in the machine with his hand. The employee amputated his right index finger and received medical treatment without hospitalization.
