Narrative

While EE was setting up for a repair to the jaw plant, EE had to pull welding leads. EE went to secure them on the side of the plant but missed; the weight of the leads pulled EE off balance. At that point, EE knew was going to fall off the step ladder so EE turned to step to the ground. EE's left foot landed on a rock that rolled EE's ankle causing the injuries.
