## Narrative

Member was holding a primary belt scraper while it was being cut with a reciprocating saw. The scraper started vibrating and he moved his hand closer to the saw blade when doing so the saw blade jumped out of the cut and punctured his hand between his little finger and ring finger at the knuckle. 3 stitches were required to treat the injury.
