Officials said at approximately 4:46 p.m. the New Castle County Paramedics were called to the 1900 block of Pulaski Highway, in Bear, for reports of a subject that had been electrocuted.
Upon arrival, Paramedics found a 51-year-old man was found to have sustained an electric shock, when working in a bucket lift, near high tension lines. The man was lowered from the bucket by bystanders.
