Final narrative
An employee was de-lashing a docked vessel while a crane operator was removing a gear box. The gear box became stuck on the spreader, causing it to strike a nearby 40-foot container. The container shifted, crushed the employee's left hand, and amputated his left thumb below the knuckle.
