- An employee was setting up a two-point suspension scaffold on top of a billboard platform that was 35 feet above the ground. As he was installing a 21-foot-long metal guardrail, it contacted a 34-kilovolt overhead power line located 8 feet from the billboard. The employee received an electric shock and fell to the ground. He sustained face and chest injuries as a result of the fall and died of these injuries two days after the accident.
