Narrative

An employee was driving a forklift, raising and lowering equipment for an AC repairman to work on a unit. As he lowered the equipment on the forklift, a freon canister started to roll off the pallet, and the employee jumped off the forklift. The forklift was moving slowly and struck the employee's lower right leg, causing multiple fractures and torn ligaments.
