Narrative

An employee was assisting a forklift driver by breaking down bundles of wood pulp to fit the product onto a trailer. The employee spotted a strap on one of the loads and went to remove it by placing his left arm between the forklift's attachment and the load. The forklift driver started to move and the employee's left arm got pinned between the forklift and the load, resulting in compartment syndrome.
