Narrative

IE was helping maintenance raise the headgate ranging arm into position to pin it into the shear. The AC shield hauler did not have enough lift to raise the ranging arm. Cribs were built on top of hauler forks. When the hauler raised the forks the cribs became unstable and popped out striking IE. IE received 3 sutures under the chin on the right side.
