Police launch inquiry after yet another World’s Oldest Man meets death

Following the death of The World’s Oldest Man, just weeks after the previous incumbent died in very similar circumstances, police are finally taking the situation seriously. They are suspicious as to why these very old men keep dying, particularly since over the past fifty years every one of the World’s Oldest Men has lost his title as a result of death.
Police have issued a description of a man seen in the area described as ‘tall, hooded, with a pasty white face and carrying a scythe.’
‘He’s not a suspect, we just want to eliminate him from our enquiries,’ said a spokesman.

My grandfather fought in WWI. He was mustard-gassed in Germany (according to my mom---he never spoke of it). But he's gone now.
