Electricity accident in the Leibnitz district! When a young person tried to remove a cable from the high-voltage socket today, a connector must have come loose – and the 16-year-old was electrocuted with 400 volts! Fortunately, the young Styrian was unharmed.
The young person is likely to have fiddled with the power socket near Leutschach in the evening and tried to pull a plug out of it. He got caught in the power grid and suffered a tremendous blow.
Nevertheless, the 16-year-old should not have lost consciousness and even alarmed help. Miraculously, he had sustained no injuries, but was flown by the helicopter to the hospital for observation.
