## Narrative

EE was attempting to remove blockage from a tunnel feeder. As he moved the slide, the far side fell off the track.  In reaction he attempted to grab the slide.  However, the weight of the slide & motion of the belt, wedged his hand between the next feeder & the slide.  When he pulled his hand out of the pinch point he lacerated is little finger.  He received three stitches @ ER
