Staten Island, NY—One worker is battling to save his arm after an accident at the Moran Shipyard on May 18. Rescue teams rushed to the shipyard located at 2015 Richmond Terrace in Port Richmond around 2:30 p.m., after receiving a call that an industrial accident took place, injuring one employee, as reported by Staten Island Live.
Authorities reported that an unnamed man was working with machinery on a boat at the yard when his arm became stuck. The worker reportedly sustained cuts to his head and serious injuries to his arm. The worker’s arm was described as “mangled.”
