A Tesla engineer was injured by a robot that pinned him to the wall at the company's giant factory in Texas, according to reports.
The 2021 incident came to light through an injury record filed to regulators.
It noted the injury type as "laceration, cut, open wound" and recorded the "cause object" as a robot.
The robot "pushed its claws" into the man's body and drew blood from his back and arm, two witnesses told US technology website The Information.
