Narrative

Helping change ram car batteries. The safety chains were tight, so the car pushed the battery into the rib to take tension off the chains. I.E. reached in to loosen the chains when they became tight again pinching their right index finger between the battery and the safety chain. Caused a fracture and laceration that required stitches to the I.E's right index finger.
