Narrative

EE was ball charging in the Mill. The bin became low. They used a ball to throw up into the bin to attempt to get more balls to come down. EE was wearing impact gloves. The balls started to come down and pinched their left pinky finger, causing a fracture to the distal tuft (tip of finger). Was released back to work wrapped with coban.
