Narrative

As he desended a slightly elevated walkway, his right leg slipped out from under him. He was unable to support himself with his left hand that was on the handrail. He fell down with his left leg twisted under him. The walkway and handrail were slippery. He was immediately taken to a medical clinic where they diagnosed his left ankle as broken.
