Narrative

July 2, EE was on E floor watching wire saw. Employees on top of C wall were trying to clean up for a spot to drill. A 4'x4' piece of wire barrier fencing came loose and fell from the upper level, striking EE on the hard hat, knocking him to the floor. Created intense headache - he went home because shift was over.
