Last week, a New Jersey utility worker was hurt after he came into contact with electrical wires while he was working on Route 48 in Carneys Point Township. The man, who has not been identified, was flown to Cooper Medical Center in Camden.
The accident happened when the utility worker was working to rebuild a power line in a bucket truck. Authorities who responded to the accident scene reported that the worker was responsive but seriously injured.
