EAST SPRINGFIELD, Pa. (AP) - July 19, 2009
Firefighters say the 80-year-old man was working on a relative's
lawn when his riding mower overturned shortly before 4 p.m. Friday
into the East Springfield creek.
Erie County Deputy Coroner Korac Timon identified the victim as
Donald Heidler of Lake City. He says the mower wasn't in a lot of
water, but Heidler's head was completely submerged, and the way the
mower was on him, he had no chance of escaping.
