Sad!?Young father dies at a recycling plant after falling into tire shredderA federal investigation is underway into a young father's tragic death while on the job.  

26-year old Byron Jones died on Friday as a result of a gruesome industrial accident at Genan, Inc., a tire recycling plant in the Sheldon area of northeast Harris County.  According to Andrew Seerden, who represents Jones' family, he was "tragically killed in a tire shredder."


Sources say he got caught in the machine and couldn't get free. Co-workers reported Jones missing before the company realized what had happened. Investigators with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) were at the plant over the weekend. They say they have launched an investigation and the Harris County Sheriff's Office is also investigating.

The slain worker leaves behind a 3-year-old daughter.
