Phuket —
At 9:10 AM on September 29th, 2024, Sakoo police officers were alerted by the 191 emergency hotline to an incident where a man had been electrocuted and was hanging from a high-voltage power pole in Soi Naithon 3, Sakoo Subdistrict, Thalang District, Phuket.
Local authorities from the Sakoo Subdistrict coordinated with the Provincial Electricity Authority to quickly respond to the scene, where they found the victim dangling from the pole in front of a hotel (the name of the hotel was not revealed by the authorities).
The power supply was cut off, allowing rescue workers to safely bring the injured man down and rush him to Thalang Hospital.
However, it remains unclear why the man was on the high-voltage power pole, and no updates on his condition have been provided, noted TPN.
