Narrative

On July 6, 2021, at approximately 8:30 AM a semi-truck was delivering rebar to the site. As an employee went to the rear of the truck to help guide it, a loader grabbed one side of the rebar and caused the other side to bounce and strike the employee on his left leg. The employee suffered fractures to his tibia and fibula.
