Narrative

On January 13, 2022, at approximately 5:45 p.m., an employee and two coworkers were running the paint line. The injured employee was wiping down spinning rollers at the end of the line when his right arm was caught in the ingoing nip point on the roller up past his elbow. The employee lost a thin layer of the skin on his right arm up to his shoulder that requires skin grafts and multiple fractures.
