Narrative

Due to the buildup of material in the catchment bench, a Komatsu PC300 excavator was being used to remove material and buildup the outer berm. The PC300 lost control of a large rock that traveled approximately 600' downhill and passed through a mobile home. The home was damaged beyond repair. The occupant was bruised up after falling through the floor.
