Employee's Fingers Are Amputated by Saw Blade

On November 29, 2006, Employee #1 was working in a lumber yard located in San Jose California. He was assigned to cut a 4-in. by 6-in. lumber using a band resaw machine. Employee #1 walked to the North side of the machine table. While walking, he slipped and tripped forward. During the fall, he accidentally touched the saw blade while it was running. That resulted in an amputation of his left index and middle fingers. Employee #1 was immediately transported to Regional Medical Center of San Jose, where he was hospitalized.
