Diamond K Gypsum Inc · Struck against stationary object

A contracted truck driver was loaded and getting ready to leave our property when EE noticed EE's front hub cap was missing. EE knelt down to check EE's wheel seal. While getting back up EE hit EE's head on EE's truck mirror leaving a cut in the side of EE's head. EE was taken to the hospital where they put 5 staples in EE's head. EE immediately returned back to work.
