Final narrative
An employee was moving a toolbox on wheels to set up for his shift. It struck a stationary toolbox and the two handles were close enough in height that the employee's left middle finger was pinched off between the two handles. As part of the surgical repair the distal phalange was removed in order to accommodate the formation of a dermal flap.
