A 42-year-old man was killed in a workplace accident outside Altona last week.
On Thursday, Jan. 15 just before noon, emergency crews were called to a food manufacturing factory in the Rhineland Industrial Park just north of town.
The victim was treated by paramedics for severe injuries he sustained after being pulled into machinery. He was transported to Health Sciences Centre in Winnipeg, where he later died of his injuries.
Manitoba Workplace Health and Safety and Pembina Valley RCMP continue to investigate.
