Bedrock Gravel Inc · Fall from machine

EE crawled up on the screen plant to remove a rock left from the year before. When he was getting back down off the screen plant he caught the toe of his boot on the step and fell 5 ft to the ground. To brace his fall he stuck his hand out and landed on it breaking the bone above his wrist. This was his left arm.
