Narrative

An employee was beginning to descend the ladder of a concrete truck after hosing down the barrel and chutes of the truck. His foot slipped on the first step and his hands slipped off the rail, causing him to fall backward onto the platform of the cab. He then rolled off the platform onto the ground, resulting in a compound fracture to his left forearm.
