Narrative

An employee was under a tractor-trailer placing masking tape on items to be painted while a second employee was working on the airline for the air brakes. The second employee then tested the airlines, which caused a rear axel to fall on the first employee's left leg. The employee suffered lacerations and a possible fracture.
