EE was going to the 4th floor when at the elevator, he put his hand in between the doors and injured it, this is the type of closing door that is pull down/pull up. He couldn't get the door to unlatch it, seemed so he took his hand off the handle, pushing on it, his hand came to the pinch point of the door. He was seen by the doctors and ace wrapped. One day of light duty.
