## Narrative

Employee was stocking the trays on the roof bolter, when EE's hand was pinched between the mesh rack and the bolt pod. The mesh rack had been set down on an open bundle of bolts. When the plates were removed the bolts shifted allowing the mesh rack to drop down about 1 inch which was enough to pinch the employee's hand.
