Narrative

An employee was using a 25-ton-capacity overhead crane to place a 1,500-pound coil of steel onto a rack one foot above the ground. Once on the rack, the coil tipped over and struck the employee on the chest, then pinned the employee against another coil. The employee suffered severe bruising to the chest and was hospitalized.
