Ran across this story today on a blog devoted to electrical accidents. Just thought I would share. Be careful when you work with electricity!
Christopher Partridge, aged 55, from Northampton, was electrocuted as he fixed a street light inside the entrance of Blisworth Park, a mobile home site in Blisworth Arm.
He fell from a ladder yesterday lunchtime and hit his head on the ground, where he was pronounced dead by police.
Police cordoned off the area while representatives from Environmental Health and the Health and Safety Executive began an investigation.
The man had been an electrician for 15 years on-and-off at the site, which houses around 80 homes.
