Narrative

An employee was unloading a 15-foot-long section of tube steel from a roller bed onto the floor. As she pivoted the piece to allow the opposite end of the piece to set down on the floor, the far end rolled off the bed and struck the floor. The tube then bounced up, causing her left hand to become caught between the tube steel and the side of the roller bed. Her left little fingertip was amputated.
