From the Associated Press:



Man caught in Michigan car wash dies



A car wash employee got entangled in the giant, automatic brushes and died, authorities said.



Police were investigating the death of Ricardo Alberto Martinez, 18, but foul play wasn't suspected.



Martinez was closing the car wash Friday night when a customer returned to have his vehicle washed again. After the vehicle entered the car wash, Martinez went inside and somehow became entangled, police said.



Another customer later found the body at the business in this western Michigan community located near Grand Rapids, police said.
