Emergency crews came to the rescue of a man who got his arm caught up to the shoulder Friday in a tortilla-making machine at a Memorial-area grocery store.
The accident occurred about 10 a.m. Friday at Sawaya Brothers Market, 425 S. 30th Street, just north of Ocean View Boulevard and west of state Route 15, the San Diego Fire-Rescue Department reported."We had gentlemen loading up the tortilla machine when he slipped and fell and got his arm stuck in the machine. It went fully into his shoulder with a 90-degree turn," said San Diego Fire-Rescue Battalion Chief Josh Slatinsky.
There was a 34-person crew who assisted in the disassembling of the machine. Cal/OSHA will be contacted and health and safety will be shutting down the tortilla side of their market to do their health inspection, Chief Slatinsky said.
