Investigation Summary
At 11:30 a.m. on June 4, 2005, Employee #1 was cutting wood when his foreman approached him with an air-powered nail gun. The foreman had his finger on the gun's trigger and he pushed the gun nozzle towards Employee #1's body. By instinct, the Employee #1 blocked the gun nozzle with his right hand, activating it, and causing it to fire a nail into his right palm. Employee #1 was hospitalized at Northridge Hospital for a laceration and artery damage in his palm.
