Tree Kills Man at Sacheen Lake

A 58-year-old Seattle man died from his injuries after a tree fell on him during a windstorm Monday night, Aug. 18. Pend Oreille Fire District No. 3’s emergency medical team arrived on East Shore Road shortly after 10 p.m. The tree, apparently blown loose by the night’s windstorm, trapped the man. Fire Chief Mark Havener said friends on the scene freed the man from the tree and carried him to the house. The man was in full cardiac arrest when the emergency medical technicians arrived. When Newport Ambulance took the man to Newport Hospital and Health Services, he did have a pulse. Havener said the man succumbed to his injuries later at the Newport hospital. READ MORE
