Pennsylvania Man in a bucket truck is
electrocuted when bucket touches live power line
Tuscarora Township, Pennsylvania
A man is in hospital today in Pennsylvania after he came
in to contact with an overhead power line last night.
The man was installing a high speed data line from the
platform of a ‘bucket truck’ near Tuscarora Township in Bradford County,
Pennsylvania when his head touched a live power line.
His colleagues managed to bring him down and were
skilled enough in CPR and first aid to restart his heart several times while
they waited for an ambulance. We do not have any further information at this
time.
