## Narrative

Employee was replacing a broken screen on Screen Plant 4.  As he dismounted ladder on west side of screen plant he turned his left ankle on a rock.  It was raining, which may have been a contributing factor.  Employee stated he was not looking at the ground where he was coming down the ladder, so he did not notice where his foot was landing as he stepped off the ladder.
