Narrative

EE was removing used 36"" trough idlers. EE was sliding the idlers to his side of the truss when it slid off of the truss slipping from his left hand pinching EE's right thumb between the idler frame and truss as he was preparing to hold the other end with his right hand. The end of his thumb was crushed as the idler fell to the ground, causing an open wound.
