Narrative

While loading roof straps onto the miner, a bottom strap became fouled and the upper strap that he was pushing on continued to slide over the fouled strap. The momentum carried him forward, allowing him to slide his right wrist along the sharp edge of the roof strap. Laceration requiring 6 sutures.
