Narrative

An employee was moving material using an overhead crane with a four-leg chain sling. One leg of the sling got caught on a roller support, then released as the employee pulled on the sling. The hook on the leg hit the employee in the face, causing a 2 1/2-inch laceration to his chin and damage to the jaw and teeth.
