While lifting angle iron with a telehandler, a fork caught on a welded piece of metal on the side of the scale platform. When the weld broke, the fork sprang upward, jolting the angle iron upward, which struck the mechanic's jaw. First aid was applied, but on 5/21/25 EE reported ongoing pain. On 5/27/25, a CT scan revealed a closed fracture of the right maxilla.
