Narrative

An employee was moving between the rollers on the finish line to remove trusses from the rollers and stack them in their corresponding stacks. A truss came down the rollers and impacted another truss that the employee was moving, pinching their right index finger between a truss and the roller and resulting in amputation of the finger.
