Investigation Summary
At approximately 11:40 a.m. on April 4, 2002, Employee #1 was loading a 14-year-old horse into a 12-foot horse trailer. As he was tying a bowline knot to a ring on the trailer, the horse pulled back, causing the knot to tighten and squeezing off three fingers at the first joint on his right hand. Apparently, a bowline knot is not a slip knot, and only a slip knot should be used when tying up a horse. A manger knot was suggested. He was hospitalized for 11 hours to treat his hand.
