Tool Box Rack Amputates Employee's Thumb

On September 30, 2003, Employee #1 was assigned to paint a truck at the yard.

Employee #1 tried to hold the brace with his right hand; however the door rack dropped and fell on his right hand. The door rack crushed Employee #1's right hand and his thumb was caught between the sharp edge of the toolbox and its rack door. Employee #1 suffered the amputation of his right thumb and was hospitalized.
