FORT WAYNE (AP) -- Authorities say a worker died after he suffered an electrical shock while repairing a machine at a Fort Wayne bakery plant.

The Allen County coroner's office ruled that the death of 50-year-old Richard Warren of Morris, Ill., was accidental following an autopsy Wednesday.

Warren died at a Fort Wayne hospital soon after he was shocked Tuesday while working at the Aunt Millie's Bakeries plant.

Police say Warren worked for Aurora, Ill.-based VIM Recyclers and was repairing a machine used to compress cardboard boxes at the time of the accident.

Indiana Department of Labor spokesman Sean Keefer says the agency is conducting a routine investigation of Warren's death.
