Narrative

IE was getting ready to install EE's last outside bolt of EE's last row. EE swung EE's boom out and had EE's hand towards the front of EE's controls. A piece of rock measuring 8"" wide 8"" long 3"" thick slid off the hog panel and hit the bolter before hitting IE's left hand. IE was taken off work and diagnosed with a swollen hand.
