Final narrative
Two employees were tightening down bolts on a press punch block. As the last bolt was being tightened down, the wrench slipped and part of the press block fell on the hand of the employee holding up the press block. The employee's left ring finger was pinched between the ratchet tool and a punch that was hanging down, causing an amputation of the fingertip.
