Final narrative
An employee was receiving a 660-pound beverage vending machine for repair. While the machine was being moved from the back of the van to the lift gate, the caster wheel was caught between the van and the lift, causing the machine to fall onto the employee and pin him from the waist down. The employee was hospitalized with three pelvic fractures, a torn left anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), injury to a knee cap, and pain in the lower back/spine.
