Authorities in southwest Iowa’s Cass County say one person was killed during a farming accident Wednesday afternoon.

The Cass County Sheriff’s Office says 40-year old Brian Larry Follmann, of Massena, died as the result of injuries he suffered when he became caught in a hay baler.

The accident, which was reported a little after 2:30 p.m. happened northeast of Massena, about three-quarters of a mile north of Highway 92, off of 760th Street.
