Narrative

EE was relocating a slide valve for a coal mill when the valve became wedged on a bolt between pipe. As the EE was trying to free the valve, a fellow employee shook the pipe. The valve came loose and rolled trapping EE's left hand between the valve and pipe. EE was transported to a local treatment facility for treatment. He was treated for a bruise and laceration to left hand.
