A beloved swim coach with the New Richmond Exempted Village School District died Friday in a mowing accident at his Clermont County home.

Authorities said 63-year-old Joe Middeler was using a riding mower on his lawn in the 1800 block of US 52 in Moscow at about 6:30 p.m. when it rolled over an embankment and ended up on top of him.

The sheriffรขโ‚ฌโ„ขs office described Middelerรขโ‚ฌโ„ขs mower as aร‚ย SCAG Tiger Cub Commercial Zero Turnร‚ย riding mower.

Middelerรขโ‚ฌโ„ขs wife, who was not home at the time, later found him at the bottom of the embankment and called 911, deputies said.

The Clermont County Coroner ruled his death an accident.
