Employee dies after knee injury, amputation, and infection

At 12:00 p.m. on June 25, 2020, Employee #1, employed by a construction company, was engaged in form work for a new road. He was using a sledge hammer to set a form stake for a footing. The employee missed the stake, and the weight of the hammer caused the employee to twist and fall on his right knee. The employee was transported to the hospital and treated for a sprained right knee and a torn medial meniscus. The employee required amputation above the right knee. An infection developed, and Employee #1 died from complications of the original injury.
