Narrative

An employee was core drilling holes into a set of concrete exterior steps to make sleeves for the handrail. The drill bit became hung up, making the core drill twist and throwing the employee off balance. He fell off the side of the steps and landed on a concrete sidewalk, breaking his left wrist and landing on the side of his head.
