## Narrative

While a summer student was sweeping, a 20-pound tire knife oven no longer in service on a shelf on a wall approximately 4 feet above the floor fell on EE's right hand, fracturing two bones in the hand. The employee's broom caught the power cord to the oven, causing the oven to fall off a shelf.
