Investigation Summary
On September 15, 2010, an employee was working as the operator of a printing machine for a firm that made corrugated and solid fiber boxes. Apparently, he was caught by an object moving overhead or he was caught by a falling object. It is also possible that he was caught between that object and something else. Lockout/tagout is mentioned as well. For whatever reason, he sustained a fracture to his head, and he was killed.
