Narrative

An employee was opening the bay doors in the morning. After hitting the button to open a bay door, her right ring and pinky fingers became wrapped in a loose cable of the bay door. As the door went up, she tried to free her fingers with her other hand, but her right pinky and ring fingers were severed at the second joint.
