Narrative

An employee was unloading an I-beam from a flatbed truck and then hooked the I-beam's chains onto an all-terrain forklift's low back rest. He signaled the forklift driver to raise the I-beam. As the I-beam was being raised, the chain broke, causing one side of the I-beam to hit and break his left tibia. He was hospitalized.
