Employee #1 was laying on the floor, soldering the new pipe, which was in close proximity to a Henny Penny deep-fat fryer. As Employee #1 worked on the pipe, the fryer, which was on casters, rolled into a drain cover and tipped over. The contents of the fryer fell onto Employee #1's legs, arms, and torso. He was taken by helicopter to a burn center in Aurora, Colorado, where he died four days later due to complications related to his injury.
