Narrative

The roof bolter drill steel was stuck in the roof. EE was pulling on the steel with EE's hands and when the steel came apart the momentum of the steel caused it to come back and hit self in the mouth. EE's mouth was sore and EE went to the dentist on 11/1 and EE went to dentist again on 11/16. EE quit and we just found out they removed 2 teeth.
