Employee's Feet Are Crushed by Forklift

At 10:30 a.m. on October 21, 2011, Employee #1 was wrapping 18 in. shrink-wrap around a pallet loaded with cases of wine stacked 4 ft high. A coworker was operating an electric forklift (Mitsubishi Model Number FB20NT-AC, Serial Number EFB1450310) to place a pallet of empty wine bottles on a portable wine bottling trailer. The coworker then backed approximately 30 ft and the forklift's rear wheels ran over Employee #1's toes, feet, and ankles. He was hospitalized at Twin Cities Community Hospital for fractures of both feet and several toes.
