A Georgia woman died last week after she dropped an AirPod under a conveyor and got caught in a chain that moves the machine while reaching for it, authorities said. According to an incident report from the Columbia County Sheriff’s Office, a witness told investigators that line worker Alyssa Drinkard, 21, dropped the AirPod below the conveyor while on shift at a plant for Club Car around 9:45 p.m. Friday. The company makes golf carts and other vehicles.
We are working with authorities and the contractor in an investigation to determine the facts about what led to the incident.' Smith, 25, said Wednesday that she has not been able to shake the images of Drinkard lodged under the conveyor. 'I'm kind of traumatized from seeing her that way,' Smith said, her voice sometimes quivering as she remembered her former colleague. Drinkard was working across from Smith when Drinkard said she dropped an AirPod under the conveyor, Smith said.
