Pulling out the next catch from the water, the float with the fish got into the electromagnetic field of a high-voltage power line, which caused a severe electric shock with a capacity of 27 thousand volts.
Information about the incident on the section "Razezd 9 - Razezd 18" was received by the LOP duty station at Krymskaya station about half an hour ago.
The investigative - operational group of the Novorossiysk LO of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia in transport and the investigator of the Southern SUT of the Investigative Committee of Russia immediately went to the scene.
