Narrative

A mechanic was working underneath a service truck when the truck rolled backwards onto the mechanic; coming to rest on his upper right arm. A D-11 dozer was used to push the truck forward off of the mechanic. The mechanic was transported to San Juan Regional via Aircare 1 where he is undergoing observation. Preliminary indications are that he sustained no serious injury.
