At 10:00 a.m. on August 22, 2020, an employee working as a laborer for a thrift store was placing empty plastic tubs on a table as a coworker operated a forklift nearby. The coworker was using the PIV to raise a small 250-pound book cart near the employee. The cart was not properly balanced on the forks causing it to fall off the forklift and strike the employee. The employee was hospitalized to treat a crushed arm and shoulder.
