Final narrative
An employee was using a metal pipe with 1/2-inch tines to scrape the feathers off the side of a dryer. The force of the spinning dryer caught the pipe, which impaled the employee in the upper chest and passed through his shoulder. The force then pulled out the pipe and knocked off the lid of the dryer, sending the employee to the floor. He was hospitalized.
