Investigation Summary
At 4:15 p.m. on August 8, 2014, Employee#1 and a coworker were trying to remove an anchor bolt. The employee was holding a backing out push hammer to drive out the anchor bolt while the coworker was using a sledge hammer to strike it. While striking the sledge hammer against the backing out push hammer, a sliver of metal broke off from the sledge hammer and became a flying projectile, striking Employee #1 in the chest, killing him.
