Narrative

While pulling rods out of the Raw Mill an employee got their fingers pinched. The crew was using a cable sling to bundle mill rods together and hoist them out of the mill. As the sling came up the rods rolled and one of them slid on top of the employee's hand pinching the two middle fingers on the left hand.
