“I pulled in my driveway and turned off the engine. I used the internal button to open the trunk then opened my door and got out of the car. The key was in my purse on my shoulder. I was reaching into the trunk to gather my belongings, and the car made a steady alarm sound I had never heard before and the trunk closed on my arm. I was able to pull my arm out while it was pinned in the trunk, but I have two painful subdermal hematomas on my right arm.”
