Narrative

The injured employee was guiding the operator of a forklift which was lifting a 750-lbs. steel roll. As the forklift was backing out with the load, the steel roll slipped out of the slings and landed on the injured employee's foot. The composite toe cap in the boot clamped down crushing the employee's foot and resulting in toe amputations.
