Power Line Contact – Alexandria, Va.

October 2016 - A live wire fell on a crew member, seriously injuring him, when a mobile crane hit a power line at a construction site. The impact of the crane boom sent the electrical line down to the street striking the nearby worker, who was rushed to a local hospital in critical but stable condition. Traffic lights were briefly without power, and nearby streets were closed as the accident was being investigated. – www.nbcwashington.com
