Final narrative
On May 6, 2020, an employee was operating a metal shear to cut 2-inch strips of aluminum. He was attempting to catch the strips behind the shear so they would not fall on the floor. While his hand was behind the machine, the shear was actuated via the foot petal, causing the shear to come down on his left middle finger. His fingertip was amputated to approximately the end of the nail bed.
