## Narrative

A miner was injured while loading 6 inch plastic water line on a scoop. When the 6 inch plastic waterline was placed on the scoop, the end closest to the injured miner bounced up and contacted the miner's safety glasses. The safety glasses caused a small laceration under left eyebrow. The hospital placed three sutures in the affected area to close the laceration.
