Narrative

An employee was working as a spreader on a cheese curd line when an air line (2.5-inch clear plastic tubing, about 6-7 feet long) disconnected and fell from the ceiling. Another employee went to catch the air line and dropped the rake they were using to break apart cheese. The rake fell and struck the injured employee in the right side of the head, resulting in a concussion and amnesia.
