Man runs with chainsaw behind son and loses leg by lawn mower

A man from the American city of Bristol (Tennessee) lost his leg after his son was driven over him with a lawnmower.

Agents arrived and found Douglas Ferguson with wounds on his head and his leg. The police write that in a statement.

An investigation showed that the 76-year-old man, running with a chainsaw in his hands, had gone after his son. His son was mowing the grass at the time and says he was driving his father out of self-defense. Father and son would have a constant feud.

Although the incident took place in June, the case could only now be dealt with; the injuries of Douglas Ferguson were such that he could not occur before.
