CITRONELLE, Ala. (AP) - Authorities say a Citronelle man has died after
a tree fell on the bass boat he was fishing from.

Alabama Marine Police tell the Press-Register newspaper the man and his
adult son were fishing on the Alabama River in northernmost Baldwin
County early Saturday.

Marine Police Lt. Michael Coleman says the body of 61-year-old William
Hightower was pulled from the water at around 12:20 p.m. after an
hours-long search.
Authorities were still trying to determine whether Hightower drowned or
died from the impact of the dead tree that hit the 21-foot boat.

Baldwin County Coroner Stan Vinson tells the newspaper there were signs
of trauma to Hightower's head.

Bassboats are bad for your health, you know.

You have to wonder what the odds are of a tree falling on your bass
boat. Or, apparently, your head.
