Narrative:A wheelchair-designated passenger wearing an ankle brace was instructed to remain seated and wait for assistance that would be provided after the other passengers had deplaned. Despite these instructions, the passenger attempted to deplane without assistance and without the aid of her crutches, which had been stowed in the crew closet for the flight. While walking down the aisle of the airplane's cabin, the passenger fell near the forward galley and broke both of her ankles.
Probable Cause: The passenger's decision to deplane without assistance despite having a preexisting condition that limited her mobility.
