Narrative

An employee was operating a gantry crane to move a coil to their bay. When he set the coil down, the crane became stuck inside of the coil. As he pushed the down button, the hook swung back, crushing his left hand between the hook and coil. The employee sustained two finger fractures that involved muscle and tendon injuries. The incident occurred during training.
