Narrative

EE was climbing through a door in the intake stopping in Unit #1. He was plastering the stopping and he was stepping through the door to get to the other side of the stopping to plaster the back side. During this process he stepped on a wooden roof board laying on the mine floor near the stopping door. He twisted his right knee. He fininshed the shift and saw a doctor the next day.
