Narrative

At lewisville Pit EE was using a grinder with a cut off disk to cut the head off of a bolt. The grinder dug in causing the grinder to spin in EE's hands. The cut off disc came into contact with EE's thumb causing a deep laceration. Another EE is taking EE to the clinic and will be updating as we know more. EE has been with the company for 6 years.
