## Narrative

Injury was grinding on a piece of angle iron near the bucket wheel. He felt a piece of slag hit him in the chest and then it bounced off entering the face shield then stricking him in the right eye.  He stated to me that he was wearing his safety glasses and safety shield. He immediately reported this to the plant Mgr.
