Employee Is Injured in Fall from Roof

On June 14, 2007, an employee, one of the owners of a partnership roofing company, was removing existing shingles and was replacing sheathing on a two-story duplex house. He fell from a steep 12 in 12 pitch roof section, while tearing off existing shingles without the use of fall protection. Rotten and or weakened roof board caused the owner to step through the roof and caused employee to lose his balance and fall without fall protection off the exterior perimeter the roof edge. During his fall, the employee struck the roof edge of the house next door and was found leaning up against the house setting on the debris pile. He suffered a broken right wrist and broken fifth vertebra in lower back. He was hospitalized at Miami Valley Hospital and treated for his injuries.
