Final narrative
A motorized conveyor flipped over while unloading a trailer. The conveyor belt was stopped; when an employee tried to flip it back to its normal position, the conveyor started back up, pinching his finger between the belt and a roller and resulting in a partial amputation. Approximately 95 percent of his left ring fingernail was removed.
