Several individuals are standing outdoors near a green vehicle with its trunk or back open. One person is holding what appears to be a belt or strap, while another looks on. A cardboard box is partially visible inside the vehicle. One individual is wearing a white T-shirt that reads “LOVE CANAL – Another Product from HOOKER CHEMICAL." The scene is taking place next to a light-colored building with sliding glass doors.
