Narrative

Employee was operating a haul truck and hadn't notice a loader had stop to let him go by (both haul truck and loader were going in same direction). The haul truck's catwalk, on the driver's side, came in contact with the side of the loader bucket which pushed the hand rail of the catwalk through the driver side (open) window, which hit the employee on his nose and broke it.
