Monk killed by own runaway lawnmower
Daily Telegraph, 25/02/2008
A monk was killed when he was run over by his own sit-on lawnmower as he trimmed the grass at a convent, an inquest heard.
Moments before, the 50-year-old was seen running after the driverless machine as it set off in the 12-acre grounds of a peace temple.
The Milton Keynes coroner heard that 10 years earlier, Rev Seiji Handa had lost three fingers in another lawnmower accident.
An eye-witness told the jury how she had found the Buddhist monk after he had fallen beneath the blades of the mower at the Peace Pagoda in Milton Keynes, Bucks.
