Investigation Summary
At approximately 6:13 a.m. on April 24, 2013, Employee #1, the pesticide applicator supervisor, was working on a strawberry farm and operating a truck. The truck experienced a flat tire in the front of the vehicle. He drove the truck to a location where there was an air compressor. Employee #1 reached for the hose connected to an air compressor, and his hand was caught by its unguarded pulley drive. The pulley drive partially amputated his second finger on his left hand. Employee #1 was taken to a medical center and later transported to another medical center, where he was treated and released.
