The company said in a statement that it did 'not agree with the alleged violation' and would be launching its own investigation.

One of the nation's largest candy brands, Tootsie Roll Industries, is facing up to $136,000 in fines after an employee at its flagship Chicago factory had part of their finger amputated by a machine.

The incident in question took place in the factory on April 19, according to OSHA. The unnamed 48-year-old employee had reportedly reached into an exposed part of the machine that had been left unguarded in order to retrieve a paper that had gotten stuck. When he did so, the jaws of the machine closed shut around his hand, which ended up cutting off a portion of his finger.
