## Narrative

Employee was trying to remove a chunk of cement from silo.  There wasn't a large amount of cement above chunk.  I removed a large chunk and caused cement on top of it to flow out and the same time I poked it again and cement hit my arm and caused the cement to blow into side of my face.
