## Narrative

An employee was adding a strand of bad wire to strands of existing wires that were being pulled onto a de-spooler. As the employee added the bad wire to the existing wires, the employee pushed down on the strands of wires which created a loop. The loop grabbed the employee's gloved left index finger and pulled the employee's left hand into the guides, resulting in a left index fingertip amputation.
