## Narrative

While descending the stairs leaving the breakroom a mine foreman's right foot slipped from under him. He believes it may have been a wet stair or his foot simply landed wrong. He managed to catch himself on the handrail but his right foot slid towards his left foot. He was treated at a local ER where it was determined he had broken his tibia at the ankle.
