The incident took place around 9:50 a.m. Tuesday on Mid Oaks Road in Monroe when the unidentified woman, who works for a cleaning company, walked out to one of two vehicles parked in an inclined driveway to retrieve supplies, said Monroe Police Sgt. Anthony Amatetti.
While she was getting the supplies from the front vehicle, another worker was leaving in the second vehicle, parked in the back.
As the 21-year-old co-worker prepared to leave, she moved the vehicle forward instead of backing out and crushed her co-worker, the sergeant said.
The victim received two crushes knees and lacerations to her lower leg. She was airlifted to Westchester Medical Center for treatment, he added.
No tickets were issued.
