Investigation Summary
Investigation Nr: 170252670
Event: 07/23/1991
Employee dies after being severely burned in mill fire
On July 23, 1991, the drive V-belt on an outfeed auger at a feed mill broke. The hammermill grinder, however, continued to operate. The grinder overheated, then caught fire. Employee #1, a 61-year-old mixer operator, and a coworker replaced the belt and attempted to extinguish the fire. Believing the fire was out, the employees restarted the grinder and the coworker left the area. At approximately 8:40 p.m., unextinguished coals from the grinder fire caused an explosion. Employee #1 sustained 3rd-degree burns over 85 percent of his body. He died the next day at 10:26.
