Man Dies After Falling Into Meat Grinder At Oregon Packaging Plant

[SEATTLE.CBSLOCAL] A man has died at an Oregon packaging plant after falling into a meat grinder.
Bet that was very painful. Briefly.
Clackamas County authorities say 41-year-old Hugo Avalos-Chanon, a contract employee for DCS Sanitation Management, fell into a meat blender at Interstate Meat Distributors while cleaning, KOIN-TV reports.

An employee pressed the emergency switch in an effort to stop the blender, but it was too late. Dr. Cliff Young, deputy state medical examiner, tells The Oregonian that Avalos-Chanon died from "blunt-force injuries and chopping wounds."

Darrin Hoy, president of Interstate Meat Distributors, called it an "extremely unfortunate incident."
