Investigation Summary
On August 8, 2010, Employee #1 was fighting a fire at a residential structure. While apparently standing on an extension ladder, at an approximate height of 8 feet, Employee #1 placed his right foot onto the roof of a deck cover. His foot missed the wood support and broke through the plastic roofing material. Employee #1 fell to the wood deck and landed on his back, while wearing a SCBA (self contained breathing apparatus). Employee #1 sustained an unspecified fracture, and he was hospitalized.
