A 3-year-old boy was seriously hurt when he put his hand into a bagel-making machine at his father’s workplace on Long Island, police said.

Donaldo Almendarez, 50, was on the job Friday at JP Wholesale Baking in Holbrook when his wife, daughter and son dropped by around 9:45 p.m. for a visit, Suffolk County Police said Saturday.

The boy, Thiago Almendarez, reached into the machine, seriously injuring his hand, authorities said. His father then severed the tip of his finger while inspecting the machine, police said.

Both were taken to Stony Brook University Hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries.

Suffolk County detectives are investigating the incident.
