Narrative

IE was removing a hydraulic hose. The IE was using an end wrench to remove the clamps due to the size of the area and when the last bolt broke loose IE's hand came in contact with the support bracket of the valve. IE was then taken to the hospital where an x-ray revealed a fracture to a 5th metacarpal bone on right hand. IE was wearing mechanics gloves.
