I.E. had been shoveling at shield 210. When the shearer arrived at the tail to cut out the I.E. was removed by the more exp. workers until the cutouts could be made. After the cutouts the shearer left the tail area and SRB was started. The I.E. was standing with his back to the shield when the SRB advanced the shield pinching his right foot between the shield toe and the relay bar.
