Narrative

An employee was fixing/cleaning up a pipe that had been welded using a handheld angle grinder. A piece of the grinding wheel broke and struck the employee's arm. The grinder then became caught and kicked back up toward the employee's face, resulting in a facial laceration and fractures to the teeth, nose, and face.
