## Narrative

During the drilling process half of a 2 foot wrench had slid off the side of the tray at the drill station. After the hole was drilled he began to drop the boom causing the wrench to wedge out between the boom and the glue tray. The wrench began to bend and broke free striking the employee in the face; causing a laceration to his lower lip and a fracture to his upper mandible.
