Narrative

The mobile crane had set the empty spreader bar on the trailer-on its edge. The crane operator was then given the sign to lower the hook, in order to disconnect the top rigging. As the hook was being lowered the spreader fell over and hit the right ankle - soft tissue injury (Note: incident occurred during the de-mobilization of the crane)
