Narrative

Worker was performing regular housekeeping on the ""drill pick up"". While doing so, the worker was cleaning the tool box which was mounted in the bed of the pick up. The lid was open when a gust of wind caught the lid, forcing it closed. The lid caught the worker on the top left hand resulting in the need for stitches.
