Narrative

Three employees were removing equipment from an old fermentation room at a bakery. They were using two bakery dollies to remove metal plates from the floor of the room. One of them was holding one of the metal dollies with his right hand on the side of the dolly, as a plate was being centered on the two dollies. The plate slipped and struck his right thumb, which was amputated near the last joint.
