RICHMOND MAN PINNED UNDER WATER BY MOWER

(Fairfield, OH)--A Richmond lawn care worker remained in critical condition in a medically induced coma Friday morning in a Cincinnati hospital following an accident earlier this week.  Shawn King was working Tuesday for a Richmond company called All Seasons Lawn and Snow when his mower flipped into a pond and pinned him underwater at an apartment complex in Fairfield.  "Our personnel arrived to find a male under a lawn mower at the edge of the pond.  He was submerged in the water unconscious and unresponsive.  Our folks got him out.  Paramedics started lifesaving efforts," said Fairfield firefighter Randy McCreadie.  A gofundme account has been established to help King’s family.
