6-year-old dies after table hits him in head



LEBANON, Ohio (AP) -- Police were investigating the death of a first-grader when a heavy cafeteria table fell on him at his school.
The accident occurred on Friday during an after-school YMCA program. Few details were available from police, but the family said 6-year-old Jarod Bennett was struck on the head.
Minutes after the accident, Jarod's mother, Jennifer, arrived at the school to pick him up and was holding him in her arms when he died, according to the family.
Lebanon School Superintendent William Sears said the school made counselors available at the YMCA for three hours Sunday to help teachers, pupils and parents cope with the tragedy.
He said counselors also will be on hand after the school's holiday break.
Funeral services were planned Tuesday morning at the Church of the Redeemer in Cincinnati's Hyde Park.
Lebanon is 25 miles northeast of Cincinnati.
