Narrative

On November 3, 2022, an employee was using a front-end loader to load construction debris onto a tractor trailer. The front-end loader's radiator cap came off and the radiator shot hot coolant onto him, causing him to jump from the cabin to the concrete floor about 3 feet below. He suffered a broken right leg and was hospitalized.
