Narrative

EE was using a jackhammer to clean inside a hopper when he decided to sit and take a break to wipe sweat from his head. He removed his hard hat and gloves and wiped sweat off. When he stood up, he slipped. When he slipped, he grabbed onto a piece of metal in the hopper to prevent the fall and the metal cut his left hand. The laceration required 5 stitches to close.
