As he passed the pipe to the inside workers, his hand became caught between the pipe and the concrete wall. He forcefully pulled out his hand. Emergency services were called, and Employee #1 was transported to the hospital. He was treated for the amputation of his left hand's ring fingertip and then released without hospitalization.
