Narrative:
The flight was running approximately 20 mins late so I had the agent call the flight for boarding as the baggage was being finished loading. Before I could finish loading the rear and supervise the passenger, some had taken the liberty of placing their carry on items in the wing locker. A man informed me he had cut himself on the hand 'somewhere on the locker door.' he was bleeding. I gave him some paper towels and continued the cross over to mhh (myam), a 10 min flight. On arrival in mhh, I inquired of his hand. It was still bleeding but he had a bandaid on it. I told him to let me know if he'd need assistance in fll. I then phoned the station in fll and informed them of the situation. On arrival in fll, the passenger said he was fine. He refused my offer to have someone check him over.
