Unclassified, insufficient data
The miner was hit on the head and received a scrape on the arm approximately 1""x 2"". His head required 4 stitches. It is unknown what contributed to the accident the miner does not remember and there was no witnesses. I assumed he either fell or was hit by a bar while prying on something.
