Final narrative
An employee was conducting a visual inspection of conveyor belt equipment and saw a string hanging down in the equipment area. He reached to grab the string when the belt pulled his gloved left hand into the conveyor, resulting in injuries to the index, ring, and middle fingers that required surgery and possibly resulted in two amputations.
