Alstead, NH — A worker was rushed to a hospital last month (Thursday, October 22, 2015) after accidentally losing two fingertips to a mishap with a power saw. This happened in Alstead at the Blanchflower Lumber Corporation.
According to the new reports, James Baquin was working with a chop saw that morning around 10:45 a.m. when something went wrong and the tips of two of his fingers were cut off.
Ambulances were called and though it took about half an hour, he was eventually transported to a hospital in Keene, then to a Boston hospital to have his fingertips surgically reattached.
The cause of the accident isn’t clear yet, but the workers at Blanchflower Lumber say that this is the first accident at the business in 38 years.
