A landscaper was killed in Bethesda on Saturday in an apparent chainsaw accident, Montgomery County police said.
They said witnesses told police that the man lost control of the saw while on a ladder trimming a tree branch in the 6700 block of Selkirk Drive.
The man, who was 35 years old, was injured in the upper body and fell from the ladder, police said.
Investigators estimated that the man was 30 feet up when he fell.
His name was withheld until relatives could be notified.
