Police, medics and rescue teams rushed to a motorcycle tire repair shop at 5.30 am on Wednesday after reports that a man had had an accident with a circular saw.

 

But Prasert Imsombat, 61, was already dead from massive blood loss.

 

Somsong raised the alarm at 5am after he saw his friend had cut himself while slicing up firewood. But he had no phone so it took twenty minutes before help arrived.

 

Medics said a major artery in the right leg of the victim was cut almost right through.

 

The incident happened at the shop behind the Takhlee Municipal offices.

Sadly, this happens way to often. Many times, I have seen workers using power tools with Thai modifications. By enlarging the photo of this accident it appears as though the safety guard had been removed, which is fairly common among the construction crews.

The headline's a bit misleading:

 

Man, 61, killed in cirular saw accident in Nakorn Sawan ,  that's better.

 

If he "kills himself", it wouldn't have been an accident.

I was thinking that Mot.  I first thought it was suicide . Even killed in circular saw accident is a bit iffy. Better I would think would be ' Dies in .......' Verb killed

I killed    you killed  etc.     Anyway too many grim deaths on here today .
