Narrative

EE was operating a gas weed-eater at the #2 Belt. He reached into high grass to remove a rock and he felt something touch his hand. He did not realize he had been possibly bitten by a snake. He continued on weed eating, felt hand tingle about 5 minutes later. EE went to hospital & was kept for observation. EE is scheduled off until 6/3/06, this case may change to a lost time.
