Investigation Summary
On July 6, 2006, Employee #1 was working for a manufacturer of metal window frames. He had completed the work on a press brake and was cleaning up the area around it. Another employee, a coworker, was using a forklift to move metal racks behind the press brake. As he moved the racks, the forks or the racks hit the press brake from the rear. The press brake was not anchored to the floor to prevent it from moving, and it fell forward, striking Employee #1. He sustained injuries all over his body, and he was killed.
