Employee #1 was on an 8 ft stepladder installing clips on a tempered glass window that was already set into the channels when, for some reason, the glass shattered. Employee #1 went through the opening and fell 32 ft onto an adjacent roof. He suffered a fractured left arm and fractured right ankle.
