Narrative

The EE was changing a screen panel on processing plant. He threw the old panel over the plant hand rail. The panel fell back. It hit the EE, knocking his hard hat off & hitting him on the right side of his head near his temple. The EE finished his shift, but felt dizzy. The next day, he still felt dizzy, so he went to the doctor. The doctor determined the EE suffered a concussion.
