Narrative

An employee was removing a tube from a dryer when the tube partially came out. As he pushed the tube toward the door opening, the tube came free and the employee's momentum carried him forward. His right little finger was pinched between the door frame and the dryer tube, resulting in an open fracture. The employee was hospitalized and had surgery.
