CAMDEN, N.J., July 8 (UPI) -- Authorities in New Jersey said a factory employee died Wednesday from injuries sustained by falling into a vat of boiling chocolate.
Police said the 29-year-old man, an employee at the Lyons and Sons factory in Camden, was walking on top of the vat at about 10 a.m. when he fell into an opening and became caught in the machinery mixing the boiling chocolate, WPVI-TV, Philadelphia, reported Wednesday.
