Investigation Summary
At approximately 11:00 a.m. On November 9, 2017, an employee was attempting to use a propane oxygen mixture to cut a catalytic converter off of a junkyard vehicle. The entire left side (drivers side) of the vehicle was lifted with a skidsteer so the employee could access the underside of the vehicle. As the employee was using a torch to cut, gasoline vapors began building up in a small area, and eventually caused an explosion, catching the employee and multiple surrounding vehicles on fire. The employee was found deceased nearby after the fire was extinguished.
