Investigation Summary
At 4:30 p.m. on September 19, 2018, an employee was operating a combine while harvesting soybean research plots when he noticed a latch holding a cover over an auger had opened allowing the soybeans to escape. The employee reached back with his right hand to close the cover over the auger when his middle finger was struck by the auger, amputating it above his second knuckle. The employee was transported to Carle Foundation Hospital, where he was treated and released. Hospitalization was not required.
