US workplace safety regulators have fined a Pennsylvania factory after two workers fell into a vat of chocolate and had to be rescued.
The Mars Wrigley factory in the city of Elizabethtown was fined more than $14,500 (£12,000) by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration.
The workers were contractors who did not work full-time for the factory.
The incident happened in June 2022. A hole had to be cut into the bottom of the partly-full tank to get them out.
