Narrative

An employee was on a head platform attached to the top of a 200 foot tall elevator guiding a new conveyor belt into the elevator from the top. The belt was inserted about 3/4 of the way when the belt broke and fell on two employees on the platform knocking the employee to the floor of the platform and fracturing his right hip. The second employee received stitches and was released.
