Details of Event
The deceased was walking up the dook road at the end of his shift, and during the interval when the haulage is standing. When near the top he was struck by some runaway hutches and severely injured. He dies four days later from his injuries. There was no arrangement to show to the engineman when the dook was clear of persons.
