TROY (AP) – A Unity man who was cutting trees on a wood lot was killed Sunday when a tree fell on him, authorities said.

David Bushey, 40, was pronounced dead at the scene, the Waldo County Sheriff’s Department said.

Bushey was working alone at the site off the North Dixmont Road. His body was found by the property owner, Jerry Howe of Troy, who cut the tree off from Bushey but found that he had no pulse.

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration was called to assist in the investigation.
