SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Authorities in Salt Lake City say a man was electrocuted when the cherry picker he was operating accidentally touched a string of power lines. Fire Capt. Anthony Burton says the man, whose name and age have not been released, died while working west of Liberty Park on Thursday morning. The Deseret News reports emergency crews had to wait for Rocky Mountain Power to cut electricity to the lines before they could get the man off of the hydraulic elevated platform, by which time he was dead. The man was not working for a company, and it’s unclear what he was doing when he was electrocuted. No other information was released.
