Narrative

An employee was unloading a trainer (similar in appearance to a tool box on wheels) from a crate to prepare the crate for repair. As the trainer was being rolled down the built-in ramp using a winch, it started to tip off of the side. The employee attempted to prevent the trainer from falling on its side, resulting in the trainer striking the employee's leg. The employee was hospitalized.
