An Arkansas man has died while working
to clean up after a storm in Louisville, Kentucky.
Thirty-six-year-old Steven Mosher of Texarkana was injured about
5:40 pm yesterday when a part of a tree fell on him.
Deputy Jefferson County coroner Jack Arnold says Mosher died
shortly after the accident at University hospital.
Mosher was working for Alpha One tree service of Texarkana.
Arnold said the death was being reported to state officials in
Frankfort as a workplace fatality.
Storms on in Louisville last week had winds up to 80 miles per
hour. The storm knocked down trees, limbs, and power lines and
snapped some power poles.
Arnold said Mosher was the only death attributed to the storm.
