## Narrative

The support cables on c-19 conveyor became twisted. They were working on re-spooling them when a section in the middle of the conveyor frame ""dropped down"". When the section dropped, they who were standing on the belt were jolted upward off the belt due to the ""wave-like motion"" on the belt. When they came back down on the belt, they sustained injuries.
