Before the incident

Restacking Part Cases

What happened

[REDACTED] states that he was re-stacking part cases and he gripped the case at the top when he went to sit it down it was very close to another stack of cases and he cut his right knuckles on the outside corner of that case. He states that due to having at least 2 cases in hand at the time there was some weight behind it when he sat it down which caused it to press harder on the other case and resulted in a deeper cut. He thinks if he had only one case and had noticed the other cases were there he could have avoided the cut or at worst would have just scraped his knuckle.
