PITTSBURGH, PA —
A young worker died after "being exposed to electricity" Thursday morning at a house in Shadyside, a Pittsburgh Public Safety spokeswoman said.
The victim was identified as Dakota Marshall, 21, of Ford City. He was with Ski Masonry, a masonry restoration specialist business out of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. An autopsy will determine the official cause of death. Pittsburgh police and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration were investigating.
A neighbor on Morewood Avenue said masons were working on the home's chimney, which is next to power lines. She saw first responders treating the victim on a scaffold before bringing the man down to take him to a hospital, where he died a little more than an hour later.
The scaffolding was so close to the electrical lines that Duquesne Light crews had to be called in to remove the scaffolding.
The house is empty while the owner, who does not live in Pennsylvania, is having work done on the home so it can be sold, the neighbor said.
