Narrative

On 11/09/2020, at 11:45AM, an employee began to climb an extension ladder. Upon reaching the fourth rung he began to descend the ladder. His left foot slipped between the second and third rungs, causing the ladder to destabilize and fall. The ladder slid down the wall and the employee rode it to the ground, with his foot trapped in the ladder. He sustained a fractured left ankle.
