Narrative

An employee was cleaning up logs that were laying on the lawn after a storm. The employee used a crowbar to lever a log as a second employee used a chainsaw to cut the log into smaller pieces. The crowbar lever was dropped, and the log rolled onto the first employee's ankle and fractured it.
