Narrative

At about 4:30 PM on 09/06/2016, an employee operating an overhead gantry crane was using a handheld remote and a C-hook to remove a specific coil of slit steel from among other coils in storage. He became caught between the loaded C-hook and another fixed coil in storage, fracturing his left clavicle (collarbone) and two ribs.
