Narrative

Employee was riding on top the #31 mantrip coming off of the 9L section at the end of the shift. The trolley pole came off of the wire, struck the mine roof, then broke into. One of the jagged edges of the broken pole struck the employee on the right hand between the middle and ring fingers causing a laceration that required 5 stitches.
