Investigation Summary
Employee #1, a warehouseman for the Paradise Post, a small newspaper and commercial printing business, was removing some old storage racks. He was holding one end of a rack steady while a coworker removed a support on the opposite end. A 14 in. wide and 8 ft long piece of metal was stored standing vertically behind a locker and the rack. It fell, striking Employee #1's right foot and nearly amputating his big toe. Employee #1's toe was later removed surgically.
