Final narrative
An employee was removing spoils from the tailgate of a dump truck using a scraper (flat shovel). While maneuvering near the tailgate, he tripped over a dirt clod roughly the size of a basketball and fell on the ground. He got up and fell again, breaking his left ankle, tibia, and fibula and requiring surgery.
