Hi

Are these sentences fully natural? I have seen all of them used in Indian English. Any suggestions please?

  1. She shut her finger in the door and let out a big shriek.
  2. She trapped her finger in the door and let out a big shriek.
  3. She caught her finger in the door and let out a big shriek.

Thanks,

Tom
