Narrative

Employee was operating pit loader and digging in muck pile to load a haul truck, when the bucket of the loader hit a rock toe and the loader came to a sudden stop. This resulted in a jarring motion and the employee felt a pain in his right leg. This originally did not require medical treatment, but a subsequent doctor's visit resulted in work restrictions and physical therapy.
