Narrative

EE was bolting the face in the 11th East section. He had put the bolt in the hole and run I up the first stage. He then dropped the head to insert the wrench between the head and the bolt head. As he ran the bolter head up to engage the roof bolt, the bolt bent pinching the little finger of his left hand between the wrench and the jaws of the bolter.
