Ames company fined for death of Minnesota man
THOMPSON (AP) -- The Occupational Safety and Health Bureau is fining an Ames company $4,500 for failure to take safety precautions after the April 14 death of a Minnesota man working at a feed mill construction site near Thompson.

OSHA issued a citation to Todd and Sargent Inc. after the death of Jose Maltos of Fairmont, Minnesota.

The citation, which was issued earlier this month, said that Maltos "was not protected from falling to a lower level by a guard rail system or by utilizing a personal fall arrest system."
