Narrative

On Saturday, July 8, 2017, at approximately 10:15 a.m., an employee had just strapped down lawncare equipment to a flatbed trailer. As he made his way off the trailer, he tripped over one of the straps he had just tightened down. He fell over the side, striking the ground and an adjacent concrete curb. He fractured his right tibia and fibula.
