Final narrative
An employee was in the battery room changing the battery on a forklift. During this process, the battery started to roll back out of the forklift battery compartment after it was replaced with a fully charged battery. The battery fell and pinched the employee's finger between the top of it and the bottom of the battery compartment. The pressure crushed the employee's finger and resulted in a fingertip amputation.
