Narrative

An employee was removing roller pins from a tray with a hammer when an automated piece of manufacturing line equipment was activated by a sensor and caught the employee's lower left leg between steel components. The equipment continued to press down, causing a compound fracture of the lower left leg above the ankle but below the midpoint of the shin.
