Narrative

While covering a pallet with a plastic wrap bag, the employee waved the bag in the air similar to the way one opens a trash bag. The bag caught the edge of the employee's headlamp that was mounted to EE's hardhat via elastic band. The waving process pulled the flashlight away and then snapped back in EE's face, resulting in EE's tooth cutting all the way through EE's lip.
