Abstract: At approximately 6:55 a.m. on May 16, 2013, an incident occurred where Employee #1 sustained a serious injury. Employee #1 was working at an apartment complex mowing the grass. Employee #1 was operating a lawn mower mowing the grass, when he thought that the grass was being mowed to low. With the lawn mower running, Employee #1 attempted to adjust the blade so that the grass would not be cut as low.

Employee #1's left middle finger was partially amputated. Employee #1 was taken to a local area hospital for treatment.
