Mich. man kills wife with chain saw in accident

OTSEGO, Mich. – Michigan authorities say a man working in his yard accidentally killed his wife with a chain saw.

The Otsego couple were trying to cut a tree Sunday when the man hit his wife in the neck with the chain saw.

She died at the scene of the accident, about 35 miles south of Grand Rapids.

Sheriff's Deputy David Labonde lives nearby. He tells WOOD-TV he heard a cry for help and did what he could to help.

The sheriff's department says it's withholding the couple's names until other relatives are notified. The TV station says they're in their 40s.

That's awful.

Damn chainsaws are to be respected. I was trimming a tree in me yard some yrs back with my dog at the time (Brindle Pit Bull) watching nearby. When i lowered it to rest a minute he attacked it, slicing his lower canine plumb off. Took him to the Vet and had the remainder of it extracted. And he lived the rest of his life that way with no problems but he stuck to vanquishing the vacuum cleaner after that indent. He hated those, too.

She probably shot him first with the nail gun. :

Yeah, yeah, yeah, bad taste I know.
