Narrative

While dismantling the monorail on the longwall tailpiece, the monorail slipped from the injured person's left hand and struck the tip of their right-hand pinky finger. This resulted in a crushing injury to the fingertip and the fingernail, necessitating six stitches to close the wound. The injured individual was released without any restrictions.
