Final narrative
A contractor was delivering an oversized item (AV equipment) weighing approximately 350 lbs. As the two delivery people were moving the item through the entrance of the building, they lost control of it and an employee moved forward to assist. The item fell on the employee's legs and knocked him to the ground. The employee sustained torn tendons (ACL) in both knees.
