Narrative

EE was working on a belt at the I-1A tunnel in the process of changing out a bracket. When the bracket came loose, his finger was caught between the bracket & a support, cutting his finger. He received 5 sutures in his small finger on his left hand. EE didn't have sufficient lighting nor the proper tools for raising the belt high enough to remove the bracket.
