Narrative

EE broke a bone in foot after a rock from the crusher fell on it. EE went to close a side door on the crusher without properly shutting it down, first. EE was told by the plant manager to shut it down first, but EE did not. The plant manager saw EE approaching the machine while still running, and pressed the e-stop, but EE had already been hit by the rock.
