Fire at Tyson Foods plant in Georgia kills one and injures two
A fire at a Tyson Foods plant in Georgia resulted in one death and two injuries. The victim, 61-year-old Bajarma Batozhapov, was killed when a wall fell on her husband's truck while she was inside. The fire lasted about three hours, and heavy equipment was needed to clear debris. Tyson Foods is cooperating with local authorities to investigate the cause, which may involve a boiler explosion, according to a union representative. The plant, located in Camilla, is the largest employer in Mitchell County. Tyson Foods has operated the facility since 2018, producing chicken products for restaurants.
