One person killed, another critically burned after a utility bucket truck hit a power line in Southeast Fort Worth
A man died and another was critically hurt after a utility bucket truck made contact with a power line in Southeast Fort Worth.
Emergency services responded to a Shell gas station on Berry Street at East Loop 820 just before 2 p.m. on Friday.
Fort Worth fire spokesman Craig Trojaceck said one man was taken to Parkland Hospital in Dallas and the other was taken to a Fort Worth trauma hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
There was no word from investigators on what happened to cause the bucket truck to hit the power line.
An air ambulance had initially been requested to the scene, but was later disregarded.
CBS News Texas has reached out to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) to see if that agency had been brought into the investigation.
