Final narrative
An employee was working at a station that packs parachutes into canisters. The hydraulic ram on the parachute packing machine initiated out of sequence, catching the employee's glove. She was able to extract her hand from the glove, but not before the end of the ram entered the canister and amputated her right middle fingertip.
