Narrative
An employee was on a ladder approximately 7 feet off the ground, using a reciprocating saw to cut a pipe that was hanging from the ceiling. The end of the pipe was not secured, and when the cut was nearly completed, the far end of the pipe swung down and hit the ladder out from underneath the employee. He fell to the floor and landed on his head, suffering a head injury, scratches on his back, and a bloody nose. He was hospitalized.
