## Narrative

EE was tightening the cats on a continuous miner (CM). As they were positioned on the mine floor beside the CM, a piece of loose draw rock that was resting on the top of the CM shifted and fell striking them on the right ankle/foot, causing a fracture. They saw the loose material prior to squatting down, but did not think that it would move. EE began missing time on 10-29-18.
