Narrative

Employees moved the roof bolter outby to replace a damaged roof bolt then hung the CM cable to clean with the scoop. After returning the RB to the face, they realized that something had roofed the CM cable in the top. While walking over to see if it needed to be repaired it blew up and burnt the employees face.
