Man Eaten by Tortilla Machine

(Brooklyn, New York) A 22-year-old Guatemalan man, Juan Baten, was sucked into a tortilla mixer Monday morning and crushed to death.
Baten's co-workers, including his cousin, Hector Baten, think he may have been listening to music just before the accident and dropped his earphones into the dough.[…]

On surveillance video at the factory, police sources say, Baten can be seen putting his hand into the waist-high mixer, as though he were trying to help the dough along, when he was dragged in head first.
Rest in peace. Condolences to the family.
