Narrative

As employee was driving a Euclid R170 end dump up an incline, he noticed an engine noise, so he stopped the truck and shut off the engine. The truck began to roll back a distance of 75 yards before he turned the truck into the berm, causing it to roll onto the truck's cab side. The impact caused a window to shatter. Glass caused a laceration to the right side of his face and eye.
