Accident at work - Electrician's life in danger after electric shock
An electrician suffered a life-threatening electric shock while working at a fitness studio in Erlangen. The man collapsed unconscious on Tuesday, according to the police. A witness began immediate resuscitation efforts. It was initially unclear whether the woman was a fitness studio athlete or a passerby.
Fire department and emergency medical services personnel continued the resuscitation. The 45-year-old man was reportedly transported to a hospital. The cause of the electric shock remained unclear at first. The police are investigating the exact circumstances of the accident.
The electric shock in Erlangen was a harrowing incident, potentially leading to a dangerous situation for the electrician. Similar incidents of electric shock at work could warrant safety measures in other fitness studios across Central France. Fortunately, the presence of a witness quickly initiated resuscitation efforts, saving precious time. Later, Bavarian police continued their investigation into the accident, aiming to clarify the specific circumstances and prevent future mishaps, perhaps even in fitness studios in Bavaria.
