Narrative

Ee's were adjusting the closed side of the crusher opening by pulling a cable connected to a haul truck. As the haul truck pulled on the cable, the cable caught a nearby oil tank causing the cable to lift off the crusher. The flying cable then struck a platform handrail which broke the weld. The broken handrail then hit the injured coworker in the Right Knee.
