Six Honduran coffee workers died today when around 1,000 sacks of coffee beans fell on them after an overhead storeroom collapsed.
The six men, mostly young seasonal workers, were packing harvested beans at a coffee farm near the town of Villanueva in northern Honduras, when a wall gave way and the storeroom above them collapsed.
The bags weighed 46 kg each, officials said.
Honduras is in the busiest period of the annual harvest.
