## Narrative

Employee and co-worker were cleaning metal out of trash dumpster. One of the employees dropped an old hauler hitch in the dumpster causing the dumpster doors to open. The other employee was trying to close the doors by hooking the chain to a boomer and use his body to push the boomer shut. The boomer closed mashing his right hand between the handle and dumpster doors.
