Final narrative
On August 12, 2025, an employee had just finished skimming slag from the top of a ladle of molten metal. They began to walk away while an overhead crane began moving the ladle. The latch that prevented the ladle from tipping came loose. The ladle tipped and spilled molten metal onto the floor and it burned both of the employee's feet.
