Narrative

An employee was helping a crew rig up a tree. The employee was holding a wrench with his right hand to keep the bottom nut on the tree from turning when another crew member began to torque up the top bolt. As the bolt turned, the employee's fingertip was crushed between the wrench and the tree. The employee sustained an amputation to the middle fingertip.
