Narrative

The employee was loading product into a bulk truck. In the process of lowering the product chute into the opening at the top of the truck, he pinched his left ring finger between the handle of the chute and the platform railing. It was originally diagnosed as a contusion. An x-ray later revealed a tiny fracture.
