What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
This morning at 0610 I received a call from the roc reporting an incident involving a ramp worker from gat airline group support at mke airport. When I arrived at the gate (C18) at approximately 0625 the ramp worker that suffered injuries was on the way to the hospital. According to the two mechanics from air Wisconsin that were taxing the airplane to the gate, at approximately 0520 while being marshalled into the gate with a wing walker on the left wing. The left wing struck an agent who had placed his arm between the wing tip and a fuel truck. The mechanics felt a slight bump and pull to the left side and applied the brakes. The mechanics had been moving very slowly into the gate prior to this. They continued to be marshalled into the gate up to this point and had never been signal to stop.
