Struck against stationary object

EE was fixing a wash pump for the wash plant. EE stepped over the hitch of the trailer, and hit their leg on the door of the service truck, which caused EE's leg to be cut. It was the right leg, roughly 3-4 inches above the knee.

Struck by... (Not Elsewhere Classified)

EE was moving a water splitter. When EE was pulling it out to move it, the hose bounced back at EE once it was loose. The steel fitting on the end of the hose is what hit EE's forehead and gave EE the cut. Due to the cut, EE then went to the emergency room to see what needed to be done.
