Narrative

An employee was greasing a trailer at a loading dock. A forklift entered the trailer causing the trailer to bounce and the height locking mechanism to disengage. The trailer frame then came down on the axel and the employee's left middle finger was caught and crushed between the axel and frame. The injury led to an amputation.
