Narrative

There was an entrapment of two miners on Miracle Run Elevator at approximately 6:03 AM. The elevator had a rope grip fault, which caused the elevator to stop two feet from the surface. The miners were off the elevator at 7:05 AM. The fault was cleared by an elevator service company and inspected.
