A man died this afternoon during an accident in the Chautauqua County Landfill.
Sheriff’s deputies say 56-year-old Scott Deming of Westfield was standing behind a large pile of garbage and debris he had just dumped from his garbage truck. The bulldozer operator had no idea Deming was behind the pile and started to push it into the garbage pit, and hit Deming.
Deming was pronounced dead when emergency personnel arrived on the scene. The investigation is continuing but no charges are anticipated.
So sorry to hear that, I can’t put it in to words how I feel about this. All I can do is send you all prayers at a time like this. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
