Employee amputates leg when pallet jack and forklift collide

At 2:57 p.m. on May 23, 2019, an employee was operating an electric pallet jack preparing to pick an order. A coworker was at the nearby dock operating a forklift and backing up with a load of empty pallets when he turned and saw the employee heading straight for him. The coworker signaled and yelled at the employee but it was too late and the forklift and pallet jack collided. The load fell on the employee causing him to amputate his left leg and requiring hospitalization.
