Narrative

An employee's work truck was disabled on the side of the road. He set two jacks under the bumper and crawled under the truck to place a jack under the axle. While he was under the truck, one of the jacks slipped, causing the truck to fall on him. He suffered 16 broken ribs, a broken sternum, and a broken left scapula.
