Narrative

Employee had been to the 004 section looking at conditions outby the section which he had some issues with. He walked up to the section via the power entry (#5), passed the power center and turned left to go toward the feeder. As he did so, his left ear struck a car anchor installed in the mine roof. He had a laceration to his left ear lobe which required stitches.
