Narrative

An employee was cutting angled aluminum that was used on a ship to brace piping that was being installed. During a cutting activity, the saw bound against a piece of angle iron causing the top half of the saw to propel backward and to break away from the base. The top half was then propelled forward toward the employee, striking him in the abdomen. The employee sustained a severe laceration across the abdomen and required hospitalization.
