Investigation Summary
At 8:30 a.m. on June 5, 2018, an employee was measuring a stair stringer against a concrete wall on the staircase between the 1st & 2nd floor. On the 5th floor, just above where the employee was working, a framer was rolling joists. He set his nail gun on the hook on the guardrail, which were three 2 x 4s. The nail gun did not hook onto the 2 x 4 and dropped from the 5th floor down to the stairs where the employee was working. The employee was struck by the nail gun, resulting in two broken vertebras and a fractured skull. The employee was in a coma and later died from his injuries.
