Occupational hazards, extreme edition
And you thought you had a bad day at the office.
A city worker died after falling into a wood chipper while trimming trees in Inglewood, Calif., MyFOXLA.com reported.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration is investigating the incident as an industrial accident, the station reported.
They are looking for people who may have seen the accident.
The victim was not identified, the station reported.
You should have seen the first draft of that last line:
Authorities are seeking assistance identifying the worker. He's described as a fine puree of meat, bone and gristle, standing about 1/16" tall and approximately 5 yards wide.
Blecch.
What a way to go.

It's bad luck to make light of the dead.
