Narrative

EE was stepping over an anchor winch wire on #15 Dredge, and then immediately turned 180 degrees to go back and tripped over winch wire EE just stepped over. EE placed both hands down to catch fall. EE's body weight with EE's fully straightened arms caused a compression injury causing a fracture to the elbow joint of EE's forearm upon impact.
