A 5-year-old Wartrace boy lost a hand Wednesday night after falling off a lawn mower at his home.
The Shelbyville Times-Gazette reports the child had fallen off a zero-turn mower. The mother told police stated she turned the blades off immediately, but it was too late.
The Wartrace Police Chief stated that it is a sad reminder that small children do not need to be on mowers.
