An assembly robot has killed a worker at a Volkswagen production plant in Germany.

According to Associated Press, the 22-year-old man was working in on of Volkswagen’s production plants located in Baunatal, in Hesse, Germany when a stationary robot used for assembly grabbed and crushed him against a metal plate.
