Title: Wife Killled By Falling Chain Saw
Post by: Ron Scott on August 04, 2004, 08:23:41 PM
While going to the woods today I briefly heard the following news item on the truck radio:

"In New Hampshire, a man working on a ladder with a chain saw dropped the saw killing his wife standing below".

Anyone hear the details of this accident?? I assume it was an accident.

That sounds like it. Maybe the radio report was taken from a New Hampshire news source.
