Narrative

An employee had been cleaning paper off the floor and monitoring a corrugator machine. The corrugator had a mis-splice, so the employee got on a step stool and began rethreading the paper through the rollers. The rollers caught the employee's right arm, resulting in compartment syndrome to the forearm.
