## Narrative

Employee had just finished loading a shuttle car and as the shuttle car was leaving the miner it hooked the waterline at exactly the same time as the employee was stepping in the miner cable slack. The slack hooked around a leg pulling them to the ground. The employee was seen by ARH and then by a specialist where it was determined that they had a sprained knee.
