Narrative

The tram stopped at the #4 belt drive to give the belt man a ride to the #3 drive. As the tram left the #4 drive the hood of the belt man's jacket caught on a roof bolt & he was pulled over the back of the operator's compartment of the tram. This injury resulted in a laceration requiring 16 stitches to the employee's chin from his jacket zipper.
