Narrative

An employee was standing on a truck step, inspecting the bays before making deliveries for the day. When he finished looking in the bay, he grabbed the strap of the door with his left hand and dismounted the step while his right hand was on the truck deck. The bay door closed on his right hand, partially amputating his middle fingertip, including the entire nail.
