Abstract: At 3:30 p.m. on July 21, 2021, an employee working as a manager for a fast food restaurant was working alone outside the facility. The employee was standing on a six foot A-Frame ladder changing the letters on the reader board sign. A strong gust of wind struck and moved the ladder startling the employee and causing him to lose his balance. The employee reached for the reader board but there was nothing to grab onto so grabbed for the metal conduit. But the ladder started to tip over and began to lean sideways. The employee had the ladder stuck between his legs and wanted to let go but could not without falling. The employee then thought that the reader board was starting to tip over so he let go. The employee fell landing onto the ladder and then onto the ground. He was hospitalized to treat a twisted and fractured left ankle.
