## Narrative

An employee was fitting a T-beam into place with an overhead crane. The T-beam was moved into position under another one. The employee then attempted to lower the hoist and slack the line so the T-beam could rest freely. The crane raised the hoist instead, causing it to snag under the second T-beam, then break loose and strike the employee in the chest and face. The employee suffered fractured ribs, a punctured lung, and a fractured jaw.
