Narrative

EE was called on the company radio and told that the Jaw Rock Chute to the ground was plugged with a big rock. He walked up the small pile of rock under the chute in order to dislodge the large rock. When the rock was dislodged the other rocks in the chute began to flow and he turned to see what the noise was. At that point he felt a pain in his left leg.
