Narrative

The employee was lifting a Kennedy panel off of the top of a damaged overcast. When he put his hand up and over the top of the panel, there was a metal shard on the top side of the Kennedy. He placed his hand on the piece of metal and it penetrated his leather glove and caused a deep puncture to the palm of his left hand below his thumb.
