LEETSDALE (KDKA) – A man was injured after getting his foot caught in a meat grinder in Leetsdale Tuesday morning.

According to officials, 26-year-old Nicholas Mangino was cleaning the machine when his leg got stuck halfway up to his knee.

Mangino began cleaning the seven-foot machine at 11 p.m. Monday and was found by co-workers Tuesday around 6:15 a.m.

it’s called a meat grinder for a reason. i never seen one but i’m pretty sure you shouldn’t stick your leg in it to clear it. i see a drug or at least a IQ test in his future.
