Narrative

The head box chute on the C-1 conveyor plugged up and EE was using a pry bar to dislodge the plug through a small door on the side of the chute. The material broke loose and fell through the chute all at once. The material hit the end of the bar that was sticking through the hole & forced it down forcing EE's end up & pinching his left pinky finger against a beam.
