Thats a pretty cool machine. Although it reminded me of an article in the Merc today...
How about a people shredder?
WATSONVILLE, Calif.—Officials say a Santa Cruz County maintenance worker who died when he was pulled into a wood chipper had been an employee of the county for more than 40 years.
The worker was identified Tuesday as 60-year-old Henry Lira.
According to sheriff's reports, Lira was part of a four-person crew that was clearing brush on a rural road outside Watsonville on Monday morning when the accident happened. Lira was pronounced dead at the scene.
County spokeswoman Dinah Phillips says Lira's co-workers are shaken by his death and that a crisis team has been sent to console them.
The county public works and sheriff departments and the California Division of Occupational Safety and Health are investigating.
