Narrative

EE walked around the dipper and scraped a leg against the #8 tooth. The tooth had a sharp burr on it from when we pushed the dipper away from the high wall with a dozer so we could safely work on it. When EE scraped the leg against the tooth EE felt the pant leg snag on the burr which ripped the pants and cut EE's leg.
