Narrative

Visitor truck driver fell and hit his head on the ground as he was loading his truck, which had broken down, onto a trailer for removal from the site. He grabbed part of the trailer as he stepped down for support, but his arm was weak and he fell to the ground, hitting the back of his head, which caused some bleeding. Received four staples in his head at the nearest ER.
