Toddler’s toes cut off in lawnmower accident

A Utah girl accidentally had her toes cut off when she fell of the back of a riding lawnmower and it ran over her feet.

She’s now in the hospital, and paramedics say she’s lucky to be alive.

Clinton’s assistant fire chief, Guido Smith, tells the Ogden Standard-Examiner the little girl was riding with her father on the back of a four wheeler with a lawn mower attachment. She fell off the back, and the mower ran over her.

Paramedics say when they got to her last night, many of her toes had been amputated. She was taken by Life-Flight to the hospital. “In all reality she is extremely fortunate to still be alive,” Smith said.
