Narrative

OE was attempting to move a roll of pond liner with a fork lift near railroad tracks. The forks became stuck on the tracks. When backing up, the forks popped off the ground and the liner rolled off of the forks down a slight slope about 3 feet. EE was standing in the path of the rolling liner and it rolled over ankle. EE suffered a small fracture on foot and ankle.
