Emergency services were called to the scene on Aberbaldie Rd, just out of town, shortly before 2pm on Friday, after reports a man had been crushed in stockyards.

Despite efforts to save the man, he died at the scene.

Police set up a crime scene, and Oxley detectives were still examining the area late on Friday night.

A report will now be prepared for the coroner. It’s understood WorkSafe NSW will be notified.
