Narrative

Employee 1 was selecting and moving an order onto the platform of his order picker. Employee 2 was operating a reach truck and entered the aisle where employee 1 was located. Employee 2 drove down the narrow aisle toward the inbound side of the building. While moving, the engine compartment of the swing reach truck impacted employee 1's left leg, pinning it between the moving truck and the platform of the parked order picker. The injured employee suffered a crushed left leg from mid-calf to ankle/foot and sustained multiple broken bones and lacerations.
