## Narrative

A Scalehouse employee reported on EE's shift at 6:45am. The employee decided to take a break outside the scalehouse area, and leaned up against a metal chain connected to a trailer building and scalehouse structure. As EE leaned on the chain, the wood trailer structure gave way, causing the employee to fall on EE's back with the chain wrapped around EE's lower left leg and ankle.
