Fatal shock
A man died and another was seriously injured on Monday while trimming trees from a bucket truck near Terre Haute, Indiana.
The man Don Skelton, 54, of Skelton Tree Service, was trimming trees with a colleague, Andrew Smith, on a secondary road near Interstate 70 to the west of the city, when he inadvertently touched an overhead power line with his hand. Smith was shocked but said to be in stable condition in hospital where he is being treated for burns.
