Narrative

An employee was standing alongside a slip, with a mooring line next to the cleat, attempting to catch/slow down a barge and tie it up. The mooring line grabbed the employee's right heel and pulled it into the cleat, causing compound fractures to the right tibia and fibula and severe ankle lacerations.
