Narrative

An employee was unloading a load from a truck trailer that had a walking floor. The load would not move, so he climbed in the trailer's doghouse door to inspect the load. The walking floor then engaged, and his leg was caught between the load and the doghouse door. He suffered a possible dislocated hip.
