Narrative

IE was pulling cable off of the roofbolter reel for an inspection of the roof bolter. IE pulled the cable through a set of curtains and tripped over a loop of cable that had been previously pulled off. As IE tripped another miner pulled more cable off and caused the IE to fall and contact their right shoulder on the ground. Restrictions have taken the IE off work on 3-4-2021.
