## Narrative

Two employees were putting another section of boom on a crawler crane. One end of the boom was resting on the ground and the opposite end was elevated approximately 2.5 feet in the air. An employee was under the elevated section of the boom, removing pins that would allow the boom to be separated. When the second of the two pins holding that section was removed, the crane boom fell on the employee. The employee sustained fractures.
