Abstract
A Gallery of 38 Items - Fire, Bldg. #10, May 26, 2007
Description
Jonathan Tanzer, a temporary worker at the former Strathmore paper
mill in Turners Falls torched building #10 in that complex on May 26, 2007.
"Tanzer had been working at the mill on May 6, removing copper for salvage as a temporary employee of mill owner Jerry Jones, when he cut an electrical transmission cable and received a jolt that produced burns of his head and neck. He subsequently filed a lien against Jones' Western Properties, in the amount of $1 million, in a bid for compensation.
The fire occurred 20 days after he was injured.
Paper-making operations at the Strathmore mill ended in 1994 when it was shut down by International Paper, with the loss of 123 jobs." Quoted source: Springfield Republican.
