Garden City man killed in Tyson industrial accident
A 30-year-old Garden City man was killed in an industrial accident Monday at Tyson Fresh Meats in Finney County.
First responders were called at around 5:30 a.m. on Monday about an employee not breathing. Kendrick Gregory was performing maintenance work on the harvest assembly line and “appears to have been pulled up by his harness against a take away belt,” the Finney County Sheriff’s Office said in a Facebook post. A co-worker was able to cut Gregory free.
Gregory later died at St. Catherine’s Hospital, the Sheriff’s Office said.
