Narrative

Employee #1 was sitting in the shanty. Employee #2 was pulling a Dapco battery ride into the shanty, not knowing #1 was in there. #1 called out, startling #2, causing them to inadvertently hit the acceleration pedal. The Dapco ride struck #1 and pinned them and their chair between the ride and under a work bench table.
