Narrative

Employee stated that he hurt his back while walking away from his truck.He went to the hospital and was released. He came back to work and worked two days then went back to hospital and was put off work with a strain. We are disputing his comp claim due to the fact he told other employees that he hurt his back off of the job at home.
