A worker at a Dundee winery died earlier this week after collapsing while cleaning manufacturing equipment, officials said.
Armando Aguilar-Yanez, a 39-year-old McMinnville resident, was found unconscious at the 12th and Maple Winery Co. around 10:30 a.m. Monday, said Sgt. Brian Hagen, a Newberg-Dundee Police Department spokesman.
Workers and emergency crews attempted to resuscitate Aguilar-Yanez, Hagen said, but were unsuccessful.
“The initial investigation by police has found no evidence of foul play,” Hagen said in a statement.
Aaron Corvin, a spokesman for the Oregon Occupational Safety & Health Administration, said the agency was investigating the death but could not divulge further details about the incident until the investigation was complete.
