Narrative

EE was attempting to pull an empty 5-gallon hydraulic can out of the frozen ground. As he was pulling on the handle of the can, one end of the handle broke loose from the can and cut his little finger (6 stitches required). EE was wearing a pair of insulated leather gloves at the time of the incident.
