EE was attempting to use a garden hose along the building. While trying to untangle a portion of the hose EE walked into the corner of a crank out window that was open to allow air into the shop. EE had a small laceration to the head, as an abundance of caution the ambulance was called. EE was transported to the hospital to be evaluated and was released approx 2 hours later.
