Narrative

Miner was unloading full propane bottles from the bed of a pickup truck. The 3rd bottle rolled out of the truck and struck him on the right foot. Miner was wearing steel-toed boots. Bottles were not secured in the bed of the truck and were not loaded in such a way as to prevent rollout. The pickup was parked on a slight slope.
