Narrative

The injured was operating the bolter to install a fly board for the face of #1. Curtain was hung across the intersection to keep air in the face. After he drilled his hole and was pulling the steel down he used his hand to help bring it out and the air blew the curtain into the driller station catching the steel and wrapping his arm into the steel.
