Employee's leg fractured by crane boom

At about 9:45 a.m. on October 19, 1998, a landscaping employee was working in the front yard at 300 North Stone Canyon Road, Los Angeles, CA. The employee was planting a 15-ft palm tree 20 ft from the curbside of the road. The tree was hoisted by a truck-mounted crane and the employee guided the tree over the hole. The outriggers of the crane were not properly extended, and the crane tipped over causing the boom struck the employee's right leg. He sustained a fractured right leg and was hospitalized.
