SC woman electrocuted while mowing lawn

Authorities say a 50-year-old woman died after her lawnmower ran over an extension cord.Cherokee County Coroner Dennis Fowler says Wendy Panther of Blacksburg was electrocuted while cutting the grass Friday afternoon. He has ruled the death an accident.Fowler says Panther called the gas company after striking and knocking over a propane gas tank. Freeman Gas employers found her on the ground beside the riding lawnmower when they arrived about 30 minutes later.

Fowler says it appears Panther got off the mower after running over an electrical extension cord and attempted to untangle it from the blade when she received a 110-volt electrical shock.The cord was still plugged in when the gas service men arrived. They unplugged it, called 911 and began CPR. China overtook the US as the world’s biggest auto market by vehicles sold in 2009, but sales growth has slowed and some major cities are imposing restrictions on ownership to curb traffic and smog. That has prompted global automakers to look for new ways to tap the faster-growing low end of the Chinese market in smaller cities and the countryside.

General Motors Co also has created a low-priced Chinese brand, Baojun, with a local partner. Germany’s Daimler Benz is developing an electric-car brand with Chinese automaker BYD CoThe R50 is aimed at first-time Chinese buyers outside prosperous eastern cities, Dongfeng president Kimiyasu Nakamura said. He said that the car goes on sale later this month and that the company expects to sell 10,000 units per month.Nakamura said Nissan held down the cost by designing the R50 in China and using mostly Chinese-manufactured components.

Nissan suffered a temporary dip in sales when protests erupted in China last month over a dispute between Beijing and Tokyo about ownership of an uninhabited group of islands in the East China Sea, Nakamura said. He said he had no details of how sales compared with normal periods.
