At approx.10:00PM on Section 1 in the #5 entry a section foreman knelt down to nail a back check down. While knelt down EE notice a piece of equipment coming through the back check. The foreman yelled and lunged to get out of the way and fell down. The foreman complained of pain in lower left leg. EE was transported to St. Joseph where an x-ray showed a fractured Tibia.
