Narrative

An employee was boiling a 17-ounce kettle of water in the galley of the aircraft. She crouched down to clean the cabinets and the kettle was knocked over onto her. The kettle struck her arm and spilled boiling water on her, resulting in first- and second-degree burns to her chest, neck, and right arm.
