Littleton, MA — A worker who was cutting down a large pine tree was badly injured after a branch fell and hit him on the head. This happened in a residential area of Littleton, it appears, on Tuesday morning (June 23, 2015). The worker’s name wasn’t released, but he was described as a 26-year old man from Ayer.
According to the news reports, the man was working on cutting down an 80-foot tree that morning at about 9:00 a.m. when a branch that he was cutting suddenly fell down and hit him.
He was very seriously injured and had to be rushed to a hospital. At the last update, he was still in serious condition.
His employer, MEZ Tree Company, hasn’t released any statement to the news about what happened. OSHA is apparently looking into this as well as the local police.
