Two employees' fingers amputated in bag machine accidents

At approximately 5:30 p.m. on July 26, 1996, Employee #1, age 20, was feeding paper into bag machine #136.

The handle of the bag caught the Allen wrench, and his right hand was pulled under the rotating drum. Employee #2's middle finger was amputated to the first joint, and his index and ring fingers were crushed to the first joint.
