Narrative

An employee was moving a bulldozer from one portion of the site to another. The bulldozer traveled over a mound of dirt. The blade got caught in the dirt on the opposite side of the mound and the dozer came to a sudden stop. The driver was propelled out of his seat and his head struck the top of the cab. The employee suffered two fractured vertebra and weakness in his right hand and leg.
