Narrative

The door on the Mill Building Crane will occasionally become unlatched due to wear and vibration. While EE was attempting to use his right hand to shut the door, he failed to notice that his left hand was between the door and the door jam. This pinched his left hand, causing a fracture and lacerations to his (L) middle finger and lacerations to his (L) ring finger.
