A mine foreman injured in an accident at a Letcher County mine is recovering tonight.
Officials tell Mountain News the accident happened about 10:30 Thursday night at the North Fork Mine Five-Two.
We're told a portion of a coal rib fell, hitting the miner in the side.
He was flown to Holston Valley Medical Center in Tennessee with broken ribs and a punctured lung.
No word on his name or condition.
The Office of Mine Safety and Licensing is investigating.
