## Narrative

On May 29, 2018, the injured employee was standing between two automated guided vehicle (AGV) train cars adjusting a crate. Another employee drove alongside the injured employee's AGV in his own AGV. Cargo on the second employee's AGV struck a car on the injured employee's AGV train. This caused the cars to fish tail and the injured employee's left leg was caught between two cars fracturing the fibula.
