Narrative

After the driver had closed the hatch on his truck, he pulled the carbis platform up. The platform did not latch and began to go back down. As it did so the driver tried to catch it and reached across and grabbed a stair. As he pulled it up, his palm was pinched between the stair and the handle, causing the driver to need ten stitches.
