Another tree trimming electocution

A tree trimmer was electrocuted yesterday in Cornwall on Hudson, New York state, after he touched an overhead power line while working from a bucket truck.

John Nuzzolo, 39, was trimming trees in the town, which lies due north of New York City, when he clipped the line and took a massive electrical shock. The utility - Central Hudson Gas & Electric – was called in to shut off the power before anyone was able to rescue Nuzzolo from the bucket truck. He succumbed to his injuries while on site. No one else was hurt in the incident. An investigation has been launched
