## Narrative

High winds blew the doors on the back of the Drag Line house open. The employee and two others decided to close the doors. They successfully closed the right door and were attempting to close the left door when a gust of wind hit the door and flung it open blowing all three of them back with the door. The employee was pinched between the door and the guarding around the Gen-set.
