Narrative

An employee was working from a ladder putting up the angle iron at the garage door of a new home when the angle iron fell and struck the hose used for the spray painting operation performed by a different contractor on site. The employee came down off the ladder and attempted to stop the leaking paint which resulted in a laceration and latex paint being injected into his hand.
