Final narrative
An employee was cutting pieces of copper using a shear when one of the pieces dropped. He reached down to get the piece with his right hand and at the same time his left foot pressed the down pedal of the shear (which has an up pedal and a down pedal). His left-hand index and middle fingertips were amputated above the top knuckles.
