Narrative

An employee was driving the water truck and spraying water when a third-party dump truck driver flagged him down asking for help. The dump truck driver's tailgate was in a bind with the screen that covers the truck bed. When the employee got up on the truck to help, the tailgate released and slammed down on his foot. The tailgate crushed his big toe and the toe next to it. The big toe was medically amputated.
