Narrative

EE was extracting a rock that was between the right rear tires. He thought he had it out and started to pick up his tools when the inside tire blew knocking him to the ground. His hard hat went about 50'. EE got up and moved about 20 feet to the North where co-worker & Plant Manager found him.
