Narrative

An employee was in a bucket lift, trimming a tree. The trimmer caught a power line, and the current caused second-degree burns to the employee's right hand, arm, left hand, and abdomen as it passed through him into the bucket lift. He then fell out of the bucket and landed between some tree trunks, suffering a broken rib.
