Narrative

While technicians were attempting to clear the plugged chute for FE003 they had set the 25 lb. jack hammer to the side while shoveling material. The jack hammer began to teeter off the edge of the chute opening and a technician tried to catch it before it fell but the bit swung up and struck EE's right cheek causing small laceration.
