Investigation Summary
At 2:15 p.m. on September 14, 2021, an employee working for a grocery chain distribution center was training on a powered industrial vehicle (PIV). The employee was operating a Crown Model PE 4500-80 Powered Pallet Jack (Serial Number 10200086). The employee was practicing driving the PIV up and down the aisles.

The employee was hospitalized to treat a fractured leg, requiring surgery.
