Narrative

A rubber tire dozer operator was exiting the dozer cab at the end of the shift. When he shut the cab door, his left ring finger tip was pinched between the cab door and the door frame. The operator sustained fractures of the finger tip and a laceration of the finger tip, requiring six sutures to close.
