Narrative

Two employees were repairing a grain auger that was hitched to a tractor. The tractor was turned on to make the auger rotate so the employees could ensure that the repair was complete. When the auger began to rotate it caught the left foot of one of the employees. The injured employee sustained a partial amputation of the left foot (from the arch to the toes).
