Abstract: On October 3, 2007, Employees #1 through #4 were manually raising a wall when they could no longer uphold it and the wall began to fall. Employees #3 and #4 ran out to one side to escape and sustained minor injuries. Employees #1 and #2 tried to avoid the wall by diving over the edge of the floor they were working on and they fell 10 ft onto a concrete floor. Both sustained serious injuries and were transported to a hospital in Wenatchee, WA, where they were admitted for treatment.
