Narrative

On November 7, 2019, an employee was signaling a 75-ton crane from the ground. It began to rain, and a galvanized tube (12 feet long, 4 feet in diameter, weighing 500 pounds) slipped from the crane's rigging and fell. It bounced from a second-story beam and hit the employee, breaking a bone in the employee's foot and cracking three ribs.
