One killed in industrial accident
BUFFALO, N.Y. -- We're working to learn more information about a deadly industrial accident in Buffalo's First Ward.

First responders were called to Buffalo Sweeping Compound on Elk Street just after noon Friday.

Buffalo Police only confirmed that an industrial accident took place, but a source within the department tells us that someone was fatally crushed by a fork lift.

The victim's name has not yet been released.

Calls to OSHA have not yet been returned.
