POQUOSON

Police have identified the 14-year-old who died Sunday while working with a wood chipper as Frank Anthony Gornik.

He was working as part of a three-person crew removing debris and tree limbs from a house on Wagner Road about 3 p.m. Sunday, Poquoson police Chief Cliff Bowen said. He was using a shovel to drop debris into the hopper of a large wood chipper when the shovel apparently got caught in the blades, and the boy was dragged into the machine.

How awful that the people he worked with did not even know who he was.

A 14 year old, working with material that dangerous, will the employer be held liable? Or was it not during work? In that case it's even stranger that the people he was helping out did not know who he was.

Seems like he had a lonely life.
