Narrative

The miner was starting up the dredge and while doing so was on EE's phone and did not observe that the water nozzle was coming around to the right too far. The water struck the side door of the dredge and the miner knocking EE down and causing EE to strike the side EE's head on the microwave oven. This caused a laceration to EE's scalp of 6 inches.
