Narrative

The IE was driving a diesel scoop on the Main East travel road. The IE encountered a piece of large coal in the roadway. The diesel scoop successfully navigated over the rock, however, due to the size, the machine dropped immediately, which then projected the employee into the canopy of the diesel scoop. EE sustained injuries that include jamming EE's neck to due to the impact.
