Final narrative
The injured employee and a forklift operator were unloading bean totes out of rail cars. The totes are large fabric bags with fabric loops that are used to move the totes. The injured employee was guiding the forklift operator to place the forks into the tote's loops when the injured employee's right pinky finger was pinched between the forks and the loops resulting in a partial amputation.
