## Narrative

An employee was walking back to the truck to load some drywall carts after delivering drywall to a construction site. The truck-mounted overhead crane (operated via wireless remote) came in contact with live power lines, causing the truck to be electrified. As the employee was walking to the truck they touched the outrigger on the driver's side and received an electrical shock. They then stumbled down the side of the truck and received another electrical shock. The employee sustained burns to their hands and blisters on the bottom of their feet.
