Narrative

Employee states that he and his bolt partner were backing the roof bolter out of the #5 entry. As he pulled up the cable slack back, the bolter turned and began to roll up the cable to the spool. The cable had a loop in it and as it tightened up, his foot was in the loop. This caused a fracture to his (L) ankle.
