Investigation Summary
At approximately 11:10 a.m. on April 1, 2004, Employee #1 was working in a metal shop, operating an Accurpress (metal shears) to cut sheet metal.

The compression springs, used to hold sheet metal down and in position during cutting, crushed and amputated his right ring finger. Employee #1 was hospitalized at UCLA Medical Center, where he treated for his injury.
