A 16-year-old boy was killed last week in an accident at a Mississippi poultry plant.
The incident occurred around 8 p.m. on July 14 at Mar-Jac Poultry’s processing plant in Hattiesburg. The company said in a press release the teen was cleaning at the time, but declined to give any more details regarding what led to his death.
