## Narrative

EE was grabbing a 10-foot HQ rod from the rod sloop, to add to the system. EE tripped, catching their right foot on the sloop frame, causing EE to fall with the rod still in hand. As EE landed, their left hand was caught in between the outer rod sloop frame, and the rod, which caused a laceration on their left ring finger.
