Man Ground To Death In Meat Packing Plant Blender
A worker in an Oregon meat processing plant died after he fell into a blender, in what was a gruesome scene for all involved. The firefighters found the man’s body so tangled in this meat blender, that they plan to return today to disassemble the machine to retrieve the man’s remains, according to ABC Newson May 1, 2013.
The man worked for the DCS Sanitation Management, which was contracted by the meat plant, Interstate Meat Distributors, to clean the machines. When worker Hugo Avalos-Chanon fell into a running machine, a co-worker hit the emergency stop button, but it was too late.
The body will be removed today after the machine is taken apart. Dr. Cliff Young, a deputy state medical examiner with Clackamas County, said that the man died from “blunt-force injuries and chopping wounds.” Foul play is not suspected in this case, it is considered an accident. MOREHERE
