Narrative

The employee was riding a rubber tired personnel carrier in a laid-back position, due to the mining height. When he exited the personnel carrier his right foot was lodged under the personnel carrier holding his foot stationary while his upper body turned. This created a twisting motion at the knee, resulting in a knee injury. Lost time began on 8-6-10.
