Narrative

An employee in a haul truck was being loaded by a loader. It is believed that the loader tire contacted the haul truck tire causing the employee to be jolted in the cab. This caused the employee to chip their tooth. The employee was transported to the dentist, where it was determined that the chipped tooth would require repair.
