SNOHOMISH — A 61-year-old Snohomish-area man was found dead underneath a fallen tree Tuesday night.
The man’s wife called 911 around 11 p.m. when she couldn’t find her husband. He wasn’t picking up his cellphone, according to the Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office.
He had told his wife earlier in the day that he planned to cut down a rotten tree on their property along S. Lake Roesiger Road.
Deputies found the body. The man apparently had suffered a traumatic head injury. Chainsaws were nearby.
The man’s name was not released Wednesday pending an autopsy.
