## Resource

A tragic machine accident at Astemo Americas in Berea, Kentucky, claimed the life of 33-year-old maintenance worker Bradley Clouse early Wednesday. The company called it a “tragic accident,” halted operations for two days, and sent employees home. Just weeks after announcing a $112 million expansion to create 114 new jobs, the incident casts a dark shadow over the project. Authorities and Kentucky OSHA are investigating, while Clouse’s body is being autopsied to determine the full cause.
