Narrative

Employee was walking past a haul truck which had stopped in the drift. The haul truck driver thought the miner was clear & began to move forward. As he did the employee's right foot was run over by the back tire & when he pulled it out from under the tire he felt like his belt twisted him around causing the left femur to fracture.
