Employee's hand crushed in concrete mixer

On April 27, 2000, Employee #1, a laborer for Greystone Plastering, was mixing plaster in a small concrete mixer at a work site in Los Gatos, CA. He had just lifted a 90 lb bag and broken it on the top grid of the mixer when the bag slipped over the edge of the grid opposite him and fell into the barrel. Employee #1 stepped up on the equipment and reached over to pull the bag out of the mixer, but the bag became caught on a mixer paddle and was pulled into the barrel. Employee #1 did not relinquish his grip, and his hand was pulled into the mixer and crushed between the paddle and the barrel wall.
