Narrative

An employee had just moved the bed of a tow truck using a winch attached to an overhead crane. As he set the bed down on a cart, the winch detached, came back up toward the employee, and struck his left hand, pinching it against the crane hook. He suffered a partial amputation of the middle finger.
