Fire officials say a central Ohio man has died after he was electrocuted at a construction site.
Heath Fire Department Captain Warren McCord says
24-year-old James Wolfe was electrocuted shortly before 3 p.m. Thursday
at a construction site in Heath, east of Columbus.
McCord says Wolfe, of Newark, was an electrician.
He says Wolfe had been working on a scissor lift and doing electric work
when the incident occurred. Apparently, the lift touched live wires and the poor fellow electrocuted.
Officials say Wolfe was in cardiac arrest when first responders arrived. He was then taken to a nearby hospital, where he died.
