Where did this happen?

What was the outcome?

Before the incident

I was picking rotors on B deck in location X0722B1 and pulling them toward me with a pick stick so I could grab them. I grabbed the plastic strap that is around the box the rotor is in with my left hand to pick it up. The weight of the rotor was heavier than I thought and I was unable to control the box by the plastic strap from that height. The weight of the box pulled my left arm downward and I heard a pop in my left shoulder and now have pain. [REDACTED] RN [REDACTED] [REDACTED]
