Narrative

An employee had been working on a lower-sloped porch roof and was preparing to get off the roof to have lunch when he noticed a four-foot level was getting close to the edge of the roof. The employee reached for the level and slipped on snow or ice or some other moisture and then fell off the roof approximately ten feet to the ground. The employee was hospitalized for a head injury.
