Investigation Summary
At approximately 8.30 a.m. on August 23, 2004, an employee worked for Totten Tubes Inc., a company engaged in steel fabrication. The company was located in Azusa, California. The employee worked inside a warehouse, and cut metal straps as he unloaded rectangular steel tubes from the bed of a parked truck. As he cut the last metal strap on a bundle of steel tubes, several tubes weighing approximately 2,000 lbs fell from the bundle and struck his left leg, resulting in a compound fracture. He was hospitalized for three days at USC Medical Center and seven days at Cedars Sinai Hospital. He was wearing steel toe shoes.
