Lyons Salt Company · Struck by flying object
A maintenance laborer was grinding on a part which was secured in a vise in the shop. While grinding on the part, the grinding wheel came apart, throwing a piece of the wheel and hitting the left forearm of the employee causing a laceration to the arm. Five stitches were used to close the laceration.
