Narrative

Employee had went around the block to let the other supply tractor pass. As EE tried to pull out into the roadway, the tractor high centered on some gob which raised the rear wheels off the ground. EE was using their foot to push some rocks under the wheel to try to get traction. The rear of the tractor swiveled down pinning EE's leg under the tractor causing EE to twist knee.
