Investigation Summary
At 4:30 p.m. on May 30, 2017, Employee #1, employed by a construction company, was working at a construction job site. He was straddling an I-beam and machinery framework while using a come-a-long to move a gear box into place. The come-a-long slipped, causing Employee #1 to lose his balance and fall, a fall height of approximately 12 feet. Emergency services were called, and Employee #1 was transported to the hospital. He was admitted and treated for three fractured ribs, a partially collapsed lung, a concussion, and various contusions and lacerations.
