Narrative

An employee was watching a crane load as it was being offloaded. His left hand was placed between the dunnage and the bracket to keep the cargo from striking the bracket, but the cargo shifted and his index and ring fingers were caught between the dunnage and the cargo. Both fingers were amputated.
