Investigation Summary
At approximately 11:30 p.m. on July 24, 2003, Employee #1 was operating an automatic screw machine. As he loaded a 12-foot-long aluminum bar into the machine, the bar became jammed in the machine and began to spin. As the bar spun, it bent and struck Employee #1, impaling his legs. A major artery was severed, causing Employee #1 to bleed to death within a few minutes.
