Final narrative
An employee was working as the aft-inshore general longshoreman on a vessel. A container was being discharged from the vessel onto a chassis truck. As the container was lowered into position, the employee was removing a semi-automatic twist lock from one corner of the container when the top half of his right index finger was caught between the container and the chassis. The employee was hospitalized and his top right index finger was removed.
