Narrative

EE was working on the miner with the mechanics and picked up a flex side for the miner off of the Diesel ride, he then walked about 8ft and put in the ram car bed and then got in the car and took it to the miner. He then felt pain in his lower back on the right side. It was about an hour after picking the flex side up that he felt the pain.
