BAINBRIDGE ISLAND, Wash. (AP) — Bainbridge Island police say a 47-year-old area resident has died from injuries suffered when a maple tree he was cutting fell on him.
He was identified as Tad James Reid.
Reid’s children called police Saturday evening, saying he’d been cutting down trees on their property and they couldn’t find him.
Police found the man pinned under a tree and freed him. Bainbridge Island firefighters tried unsuccessfully to resuscitate him.
