Employee Gets Fatally Struck-By a Piece of Lumber

At approximately 10:30 a.m., on March 16, 2011, Employee #1 of Sanders Wood Products Inc., was cleaning up under the chipper feed conveyor in the mill. As he was doing his assigned task it appears a piece of lumber came off the conveyor and struck Employee #1 on the right side of his face above and in the eye. He managed to stagger approximately 12 feet to a stairway leading to an upper deck where the other crew members were. He collapsed at the foot of the stairway, bleeding profusely until a coworker found him approximately thirty minutes later. He was fatally injured.
