Employee Fractured Leg - Caught In Cable Being Pulled

Employee #1, a foreman, fractured his left leg when it became caught in a loop in a cable being pulled. He was in an excavated pit supervising the placement of a new 8-inch sewer pipe by a method called "pipe busting" to replace an old 6-inch line. He was watching a cable being pulled through the old sewer line from another pit when his left foot became caught in a loop in the cable. He did not notice that the cable line was buried in the mud at the bottom of the excavation site. He fractured his left leg about four inches above his ankle. He went to a local hospital for treatment.
