Narrative

Millwright was pushing the #4 scale feed belt, which was jammed with a rock. His hands slipped and his chest struck the motor. The injury wasn't immediately felt but started to hurt after an hour, especially when walking and breathing deeply. He notified management and went to the hospital where X-rays revealed a fractured rib.
