(UPDATE) Equipment Repair Incident Kills Bluevale-Area Farmer

(Story updated with name of victim)

Police have now identified the Huron County farmer killed this week working on a piece of equipment.

The victim was 41 year old David Johnston of Morris-Turnberry.

First responders were called to Johnston's beef farm on the Jamestown Road, south of Bluevale, yesterday afternoon.

The preliminary investigation suggests Johnston was performing maintenance on a skid steer when the bucket pinned him against the frame of the machine.

He was pronounced dead at the scene.

The Ministry of Labour is investigating that Huron County incident.
