92-Year-Old Man Dies After Falling From Calamansi Tree
A 92-year-old man died after falling from a calamansi tree in Phetchaburi province while trimming branches. Authorities found no signs of foul play and suspect he either lost his balance or a branch broke during the fall.
On July 11, police in Nong Hae Plong district, Phetchaburi province, responded to a report of a man who had fallen from a tree and died. At the scene in a calamansi garden in Nong Hae Plong subdistrict, officers found 92-year-old Bunsanti lying dead on the ground, his body resting on a large branch. He had severe injuries and significant bleeding.
Investigators determined the calamansi tree he had climbed to trim branches was more than 5 meters tall. Preliminary findings suggest Bunsanti either lost his balance or the branch broke while he was cutting, causing him to fall hard to the ground and die at the scene. A preliminary autopsy by the hospital doctor revealed no signs of assault or foul play. The body will be sent to the forensic department for a detailed autopsy to determine the exact cause of death before proceeding with legal procedures and returning the remains to relatives for religious rites.
