Narrative

An employee was walking under a spool of coil tubing to assist another employee. When the employee reached up and grabbed the tubing, his left hand was pulled into a pinch point between the tubing and a roller. The employee tried to get his left hand out of the pinch point using his right hand, but his right hand was also caught in the pinch point. He suffered multiple fractures and lacerations to both hands, requiring surgery and hospitalization.
