Man dies in circular saw accident
A police investigation is under way into the death of a man in an industrial accident in Lincolnshire.

Timothy Stenlake, 57, was injured cutting wood with a circular saw at around 0130 GMT on Sunday at an industrial workshop behind his house in Pinchbeck.

He was taken to Boston's Pilgrim Hospital, but died a few hours later.

The police initially treated the death as suspicious, but they now say it was an industrial accident.

Lincolnshire Police said the accident could have been avoided.

They have urged anyone who owns machinery to make sure all safety equipment is fitted.
