Narrative

An employee was crouched down while checking wires in a receptacle box. He tried to turn to his right and his left knee struck the first sheet of tile in a stack of 15-20 sheets of 4' x 8' stone tile that was leaned against the wall. Most of the stack then fell onto the employee's legs. The employee's right fibula and tibia were fractured and required surgery.
