Narrative

An employee was unloading a box trailer using a forklift. As the employee drove over the dock plate (which had initially not lined up with the trailer, but had been adjusted), the forklift fell. Two of the employee's fingers were crushed between the forklift's frame and the wall, and were amputated.
