Narrative

An operator was bolting in the CTR 2970 at approximately 9:20 a.m. The operator was about to readjust bolter to begin installing more ground support. A small rock began to fall. The ground support began to fail past the long support anchorage. The operator got out of the cab safely but the boom of the bolter was covered in material.
