Narrative

An employee was working behind a stack of steel I-beams (stacked 2 columns deep and 4 levels high on the floor) while a forklift was pushing the stack. When the forklift took off the second-to-last beam, the last one was pushed over, causing it to fall to the ground and strike the employee. The employee sustained a fracture to the right leg.
