Narrative

At approximately 7:20 a.m. on Tuesday, May 13, 2014, an electrician was in the process of pulling wire through a 3/4"" electrical conduit from a junction box to the belt scales. As he pulled, his left foot slipped and he started to fall but was able to catch himself and regain his footing, but he twisted as he did, and he felt a pop in his back.
