An employee at a greenhouse was killed in an industrial incident Thursday morning, according to the Orem Police Department.

Officials reported Efren Perez-Sanchez, of Lindon, was working at Cook’s Farm and Greenhouse at 1645 W. 1600 North in Orem around 8:20 a.m., said Lt. Trent Colledge with the Orem Police Department.

The 39-year-old was using an air tank to spray down the greenhouse when the tank exploded and struck him.

Officers and investigators with Occupational Safety and Health Administration are still working to determine whether negligence was a factor in the incident.

The greenhouse and farm comprise 13 acres and is expected to be closed for two days, according to investigators.
