Narrative

A crew placed a crate of windows on top of the roof of a building using a tower crane. After landing the crate and unstrapping it, a gust of wind blew the straps, causing the straps to reattach to the crate's corner and lift the crate. The crate struck the injured employee in the hip resulting in a broken pelvis.
