Last week, a tragic incident at a recycling center in New Jersey claimed the life of a married father of two. Timothy Hannold, a 50-year-old supervisor of recycling operations, was killed when he was crushed inside a dumpster at the Northern Recycling Center in Lakewood.
According to the Lakewood Police Department, the incident occurred while recycling employees were moving a recently delivered large container. Unfortunately, during the process, Timothy entered the container unbeknownst to the employees. As they attempted to upright the dumpster, the doors shifted, trapping Timothy against the inside wall. Despite their efforts, Timothy did not survive the incident.
