## Narrative

An employee was walking around a flatbed that was being unloaded by a forklift. The employee was placing dunnage on the floor while the forklift removed a double-stack pallet of foam. The dunnage from the double stack pallet became entangled with the adjacent pallet, causing the top pallet of the double-stack to fall and strike the employee. The employee sustained a dislocated ankle and fractured lower tibia and was hospitalized.
