A civil suit by a teenager who had his right leg amputated as a result of a forklift injury he sustained while trespassing in a construction site in a busy shopping center in Sicklerville was reinstated by a state appeals court.

The suit claims his injury could have been prevented if the building’s entryway hadn’t been open, more signs had been posted warning of a building zone and keys to the forklift hadn’t been left in the ignition that made it inviting.
