Narrative

A belt mechanic was changing out a top roller when the belt unexpectedly started and put tension on the come-a-long being used to raise the belt. The come-a-long got wrapped around the injured miners hand causing lacerations to EE's right hand and thumb, and a fracture to EE's index finger.
