Narrative

An employee was performing rigging operations when a headache ball (overhaul hook ball) became caught on an I-beam. When the employee freed the headache ball, it made contact with the employee's left foot. The steel toe on the employee's boot pressed down on the big toe, requiring stitches and hospitalization.
