Narrative

At about 2:00 p.m. on March 14, 2025, an employee was setting up a threader machine. When the machine was restarted, a 15-inch Allen wrench (which had been used to tighten the die and was still attached) whipped around and struck the employee's left forearm. His arm was broken and he was hospitalized, requiring surgery.
