FOREST JUNCTION, Wis. (AP) -- Calumet County authorities say a 64-year-old Brillion man has died after a piece of farm equipment fell on him.

Sheriff's Lt. Kelly Sippel say the incident occurred Monday about 12:30 p.m.

Deputies say the man had been working on the equipment when it apparently fell on him. Family members managed to pull him out from under the machinery but he was declared dead at the scene.

Sippel says an autopsy has been scheduled.

The accident remains under investigation.
