UNADILLA — Dennis Meyer, a 69-year-old Nebraska City man, died in a grain bin accident Saturday afternoon at farm northeast of Unadilla.
A press release from the Otoe County Sheriff’s Office says Meyer had climbed into the bin to clear a jammed auger.
A man outside the bin lost contact with him and called 911 about 2:45 p.m.
Rescue workers fromĀ Syracuse, Dunbar and Unadilla searched for the missing man and cut away openings on the side of the grain bin to help remove the beans inside.
