Final narrative
The belt on an air compressor had just been put back into place after turning upside down. An employee was working to take a picture of the identifying numbers on the belt so that a replacement could be ordered when the compressor rolled, causing the pulley to spin. The employee's right index finger was caught between the pulley and the belt, and the fingertip was amputated at the first knuckle.
