A Houston County man going down the railroad tracks on a riding lawn
mower was hit and killed by a train early Saturday morning.

Anthony Todd Potts, 38, of 809A Ga. 247, was traveling southbound on
the Norfolk Southern tracks south of Ga. 96 when he was hit by a
northbound train at 1:13 a.m., said Cpl. Sean Alexander of the
Houston County Sheriff's Office.

"Alcohol is a contributing factor," Alexander said. An autopsy is
scheduled for Monday.

Cpl. Brad Stone of the Houston County Sheriff's Office said
investigators have no idea why the man was riding the lawn mower down
the tracks in the middle of the night.

Potts was killed instantly and the lawn mower was destroyed beyond
recognition, Stone said.
