Narrative

An employee was raising a 65-pound plastic tank out of the dunk tank after the plastic tank failed a leak detection test. The plastic tank got caught on the arm of the dunk tank. The plastic tank then came loose from the dunk tank arm and fell, crushing the injured employee's right hand against the edge of the dunk tank. Their ring finger was surgically amputated at the distal interphalangeal joint.
