## Narrative

Employee was in process of sawing through a PVC pipe that was located in an area that was causing tension on the pipe.  When the employee cut completely through the pipe, the tension caused the pipe to snap up and trap his finger between it and a metal support.  This caused a laceration on the top side of the right index finger of the employee.
