## Narrative

An employee was positioned at the rear of a 60 ton truck crane. The crane's outrigger jacks were raised in preparation for re-positioning the crane.  As the jacks were raised the crane traveled backward approximately 5 feet. As a result, the employee's right leg was caught between the rear of the 60 ton crane and the outrigger mats being utilized by an adjacent 240 ton crane. The employee suffered a puncture wound and fracture to the right knee requiring corrective surgery.
