Narrative

An employee was walking through the shop when she stopped to watch a mechanic doing maintenance on a truck. The mechanic was changing the rear spring axle on the front of the vehicle. The bottle jack was keeping the spring open to pull out the pins. As the mechanic was tapping the pins out, the bottle jack shifted and shot out, hitting the employee and injuring her right cheek.
