Narrative

On July 25, 2007, the injured was walking on the crossover of a drill when his foot slipped, injuring his knee. As the months went by, his knee pain continued to get worse. Please note, on May 1, 2008, surgery was performed to repair a torn cartilage, thus making the injury a reportable event at that time.
