## Narrative

Using a 1/2"" electric drill to drill 1-1/2"" holes through plywood using a flat wood boring bit. As he was drilling, the bit bound up in the wood causing the drill's handle to twist, bending his right ring & pinky fingers. (NOTE: Drill was NOT equipped with a trigger lock.) He let go of the trigger as soon as he noticed it bind, but couldn't get his hand away fast enough.
