Narrative

An employee was kneeling on the ground while fastening metal studs together using a cordless impact gun. While driving a self-drilling framing screw into a metal stud, the drill point portion of the screw snapped off. This caused the impact gun to slip forward and push the remaining portion of the screw through the employee's glove and into his palm.
