Investigation Summary
At approximately 2:48 p.m. on November 26, 2013, Employee #1 was working for a subcontractor that was engaged in metal framing and drywall installation. He was using a DeWalt router to cut a 30 in. by 6 ft by 0.625 in. section of drywall. The cord of the router became tangled and the router was pulled out of his hand.

On November 27, 2013, his wife drove him to a medical center, where he was admitted and treated for a palm infection and was hospitalized for four days.
