Investigation Summary
On July 22, 2103, Employee #1, with Paul Harris Farms, Inc., was operating a two-row tobacco harvester conveyor (Carolina Tobacco Services, Inc.). He stopped to unclog tobacco materials from the middle of the conveyor. The defoliator was turned off, but the conveyor was left on. Employee #1 reached under the forward position roller, and his left arm was caught and pulled into the conveyor. He was found by a coworker who was hauling tobacco. The coworker noticed that the tobacco harvester was stopped. The coworker could not dislodge Employee #1, so he called his supervisor, and they dislodged Employee #1 and performed chest compressions on Employee #1. Employee #1 was taken to the hospital, where he died in the hospital during surgery.
