Narrative

An employee was bending over in front of a plastic winder when his shirt became stuck on the core containing sticky tape. The sticky core pulled the employee's shirt over his head, which then strangled his neck. He passed out momentarily before regaining consciousness. He sustained multiple injuries in his neck and upper body, requiring hospitalization.
