Narrative

Employees were loading I-beams onto a flatbed truck with an excavator. The last beam of the load was just set and secured in place when the crew removed the rigging from the I-beam. The excavator then turned away from the truck. A piece of the rigging was unintentionally caught on a piece of the I-beam, causing the beam to slide off the truck. The I-beam hit an employee's arm and leg.
