Employee fractures arm when struck by forklift

At 10:24 p.m. on September 30, 2019, an employee, an electrical contractor, was working in the basement of a jobsite removing an electric splice box from below grade using a Toyota stacker truck. The employee, using lifting straps placed on the forks of the stacker truck, began to lift the splice box from the pit when the 1,370 pound-weight of the box pulled the truck into the pit. One of the 6-foot forks of the truck struck and pinned the employee in the pit. Emergency services freed the employee and transported him to the hospital, where he was admitted to treat a fractured left forearm and elbow.
