M. Zribi W. Ben Amar S. Bardaa Z. Hammami S. Maatoug

Abstrak

Suicide by power saws (bland, chain, circular or router saw) are an extreme exception. A few case reports are published in forensic literature regarding it. We report the case of a 30-year-old carpenter found dead lying on the floor next to a router saw in his carpenter workshop, with two gaping and deep wounds in his head. We summarize the findings of the death scene examination, the forensic autopsy, and the world literature concerning suicide committed with power saws.
