Narrative

Employee 1 was using a crane truck to pull pipe out of a wet well to be cut for removal. As the pipe was brought out of the 40-foot well, employee 2 rolled the pipe to be cut on the other side. While it was still connected to the hoisting cable, the pipe kicked back and knocked employee 1 into the wet well. Employee 1 sustained a right wrist fracture, back fracture, and a torn aorta.
