A mechanic was removing an old U-joint from a coal truck. In the process of striking the object to punch the U-joint out, the mechanic delivered a glancing blow, which caused a 6 inch long x 5/8 inch thick bolt to fly out and hit the injured party in the mouth. This caused a cut to the mouth, one tooth to be knocked out, one tooth broken & two teeth to be loosened.
