Final narrative
On November 4, 2023, an employee was unclogging an oil line for a fryer and began by closing the valves at the fryer drain, pump, and intersection in the pipe. This caused the short section of the pipe to become pressurized. As the employee opened the valve at the bottom of the fryer, the air in the pipe blew up into the fryer full of hot oil, causing it to overflow onto their hands. The employee suffered second-degree burns to both hands.
