DOUGLAS, Mass. (AP) - A 53-year-old Monson man has been electrocuted at an envelope plant.

The Worcester District Attorney's office says Martin Gamache was working on a piece of machinery Wednesday afternoon at Classic Envelope Co. in Douglas when he was apparently electrocuted.

He was taken to a hospital where he was pronounced dead.

Authorities say Gamache was working on a blower motor of a machine used to make envelopes when the incident occurred.

The Worcester Telegram & Gazette reports officials at the Occupational Safety and Health Administration were notified.
