Narrative

EE was walking down the stairway, when he slipped on the second step from the top of the lanch of the HWM. As he fell, his leg went under him, causing his right knee to twist. He then contacted his supervisor and was transported to Boone Mem hospital, where he was diagnosed as having torn ligaments in his right knee.
