Narrative

An employee was unpinning a beam and removing it from the pinned position. As he pulled it from the pad eyes, the beam fell approximately 18 inches to the ground. The employee's right middle finger was caught between the beam and the ground, resulting in a fracture to the distal portion of his finger that required surgery.
