Details of Event
Deceased was lowering a kibble of stone down a stow bord dipping slightly. At a slight bend the kibble got off the way, and he foolishly went in front to put it on to the rails without first dregging the kibble. Immediately the wheels were upon the metals the kibble started away down the incline and caught him. His back was fractured and he died 9 weeks later.
