One man is dead following what police are describing as an industrial accident west of Listowel.
Huron County OPP say the incident brought emergency crews to a business on Amberley Road near Molesworth Thursday afternoon.
A 28-year-old man was pronounced dead at the scene. He has been identified as Nash Aitchison, a Lucknow resident.
According to police, Aitchison was working with a crew of people using an excavator to place pillars around a well. One of the pillars slipped out of its sling and hit Aitchison, killing him.
