Abstract: At about 2:54 p.m. on April 23, 2003, Employee #1, a housekeeping supervisor, had unhitched a trailer carrying a pressure-washer machine from a truck. He pulled the trailer from the coupler while another supervisor pushed it from the rear. The locking pin/bolt on the trailer's third wheel disengaged, causing it to slip off its mount and drop the trailer on Employee #1's right foot. He was hospitalized at Beverly Hospital for compound foot fracture and a dislocated right ankle.
