Narrative

An employee was operating a log loader. The loader struck a tree stump embedded in the ground and rocked, its open door swinging shut. The employee's left middle, ring, and little fingers were caught between the door and the cab. The middle ring and ring fingers were medically amputated at the second knuckle, and the little finger was reattached.
