Narrative

An employee was offloading an airplane flight. After driving a transporter car to place a pallet on a static rack, he got off the transporter to apply the lock and secure the pallet on the rack. The pallet began to roll off the rack and pinned the employee against the transporter. He suffered a broken right leg.
