## Narrative

The incident that led to the smashed finger occured while the subject was attempting to remove several bolts and leaned a hand against the fan blade and in doing so the fan blade moved because weight was applied to it. Began to free spin and that movement is what caught the subjects finger between the case of the fan and the blade.
