Narrative

A heavy toolbox being moved on fork tines fell to the ground. Two employees attempted to manually stand it upright. During the lift, one employee lost control, causing the box to shift and trap the other employee's finger between the box, the ground, and EE's boot, resulting in a laceration. (requiring several sutures)
