Narrative

On June 24, 2019, at 1:20 p.m., an employee and coworker were attempting to install a transverse compartment box weighing approximately 60 pounds in the back of a cab when the box slipped out of the employee's hand. The employee's left index finger was then pinched between the box and the wall of the cab, resulting in a fingertip amputation.
