Authorities are investigating the death of a 50-year-old Nevada man Tuesday following a farm accident near Cambridge in Story County. The victim is identified as Danny Christie. Christie was cutting up a grain auger for scrap metal when the auger apparently fell on him.

He was working alone at the time. An electrician discovered Christie’s body when he arrived on Tuesday morning. The accident remains under investigation.
