Albox man dies trapped by a digger


A man, from Las Labores in Albox, died when half of his body was trapped under a digger.


The man, 50, was cleaning a small irrigation pond on his pig farm.


The cause of the accident is unknown but his upper body and arms were trapped by the digging mechanism; all the evidence points towards the man having leant his upper body out of the cab when this happened.


Despite the quick reaction of the medical services and the fire brigade they were unable to save his life; the local police and Guardia Civil were also in attendance.
