Final narrative
Wire began to spool at the top of a draw machine. The injured employee used pliers to move the wire to the bottom of the draw machine. The pliers became caught in the wire and then the employee's glove was caught in the wire, resulting in the amputation of their right index finger at the first knuckle.
