Investigation Summary
At 1:30 p.m. on April 26, 2021, an employee working as a cost estimator for a building material supplier was working at a residence. The employee needed to inspect storm damage to the cupolas on the roof of the garage. The employee decided to fix a wind vane on top of one of the cupolas himself. He set up an extension ladder when the wind caught the ladder causing the employee to fall to the ground. The employee was hospitalized to treat fractures to both feet.
