    A person has died following a workplace incident in Rotorua's Kaingaroa Forest today

    A person has died following a workplace incident in Rotorua's Kaingaroa Forest today


    Emergency services responded to the address off of Tom Rodgers Road at around noon.

    An excavator became submerged while clearing a drain and a search was conducted before the driver was found dead.

    WorkSafe has been advised and investigations are ongoing.

    A statement from Forestry company Timberlands says it was a third party contractor working on site.

    CEO Ryan Cavanagh says it's important to understand what has happened so that it can never happen again.
