In September, a 45-year-old man was crushed to death by a robotic machine at a frozen pizza factory in Wisconsin.

The Milwaukee County Medical Examiner’s office identified the man as Robert Cherone. The incident occurred at Palermo’s Pizza factory – known for brands such as Screamin’ Sicilian and Urban Pie – in West Milwaukee.

Two months earlier, a 19-year-old worker was killed at Tina’s Burritos frozen food plant in Vernon, California, just outside Los Angeles, during an after-hours shift.

According to reports from WSWS, the youngster was in the process of cleaning a meat grinder when the machine suddenly turned on. His coworkers heard his screams but were unable to reach him in time.
