Narrative

An employee was on a step of a horizontal boring mill, using an air nozzle to blow metal chips into a hopper when he tripped and fell into the machine. A spindle inside the milling machine grabbed his shirt and pulled him around, causing broken ribs and lacerations to the head and face that required hospitalization.
