Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was sitting inside an approximately 3 cu ft open-topped aluminum ammunition box, using a rag to clean it with methyl chloroform, a degreasing chemical. Employee #1, who wore no respiratory protection, was found collapsed inside the box. He was not breathing and resuscitation efforts failed. The autopsy findings were consistent with sudden death by methyl chloroform inhalation. No other disease processes were demonstrated as an alternative explanation for his death.
