Tragic Machine Accident at Astemo Plant | Portland Maine News

A maintenance worker at Astemo Americas in Berea, Kentucky, died in a machine-related accident Wednesday morning—just one day after the company announced a $112 million expansion creating 114 new jobs. Emergency crews responded before 7:45 a.m., and Clouse was pronounced dead at the scene. The plant is suspended for two days as a corporate safety team investigates alongside Kentucky OSHA. His body has been sent for autopsy, and the company is cooperating fully while prioritizing support for his family and preventing future tragedies.
