Webster Police continue their investigation into how a 79-year-old Lake Road homeowner came to fall over a 30-foot bluff on his riding lawnmower.
Police were called to 1040 Lake Road about 6:00 sunday evening when family members returned home and found what had happened. They say family members last saw him cutting the grass when they left. The home sits on the bluffs above Lake Ontario, and at some point the mower fell over the edge.
Police officials say they haven’t determined exactly when the accident happened or the cause of the victim’s death. They couldn’t say if Sunday’s severe thunderstorms contributed to the accident.
