## Narrative

An employee was inside a screen deck changing screens.  Material was frozen to the side of the screen, so another employee was heating the outside of the screen with a propane torch.  Debris poped off the the screen and a hot piece landed on the right side of his face, just under his safety glasses.  He wiped it off with his gloved hand and a piece of metal got in his right eye.
