Employee Is Injured When Struck by Backing Forklift

On July 25, 2005, Employee #1, a dock worker for a cargo company, was working at a terminal in West Sacramento. As he was standing next to his forklift, checking paperwork, a coworker began backing up another forklift that was approximately 5.5 feet away from Employee #1. A malfunction occurred with the coworker's forklift and its throttle became stuck, backing into Employee #1. Emergency services were called and Employee #1 was taken to UC Davis Medical Center in Sacramento, California and diagnosed with a fracture to his left leg and possible damage to one of his knees.
