Narrative

An employee was tearing up drywall from a scissor lift when he tried to move the scissor lift closer to the wall. His left hand was on the scissor lift's guardrail when his left pinky was caught between the scissor lift's guardrail and the guardrail housing, amputating his pinky's first joint.
