Narrative

After placing a piece of granite on a saw cart trolley, the employee reached over to get a pry-bar. When the employee braced himself with his right hand, while leaning, the piece of granite rolled over onto his right hand, resulting in a fracture to the little finger and ring finger of the right hand.
