Narrative

While an employee was unloading drums onto the cut porch, he bumped a drum behind him, which had his cell phone on top of it, causing the cell phone to fall into the cutter. When he attempted to retrieve the cell phone from the cutter area, his right thumb and index finger were amputated right before the knuckle at palm level.
