Narrative

The injured was in the process of installing a roof bolt in the mine roof. He pushed the bolt into the roof as far as the drill boom would push it. He placed his extension wrench in the pot and was attempting to get it on the bolt head. He spun the wrench and it flew out and struck him in the forehead causing a laceration to it requiring stitches to repair.
