Detroit police say a man trimming trees at a home in Detroit died when he fell from the bucket of his truck.

The worker for All Metro Tree Service was flipped out of his box when he cut the limb.

It happened around 10:30 a.m. near Margareta between Santa Rose and Stoepel on the city's west side. That's near 7 Mile and Livernois.

Right now, the worker has not been identified as they wait to notify his next of kin.
