Man Electrocuted at D.C. School
UPDATED - Tuesday September 19, 2006 6:16pm
WASHINGTON - Police are investigating how a man was electrocuted at a D.C. school, early Tuesday morning.
Metropolitan Police say they found a man thought to be in his mid 30's at Wheatley elementary school on Neal Street in Northeast around 2:30 a.m.
Police believe the victim was trying to steal copper wire from the building when he came in contact with a live wire and was electrocuted. Officers also believe the victim had a partner.
According to D.C. Public School's Website, Wheatley was closed this fall as part of the District's reorganization plan.

Darn, were it relegated to Arkansas, it would've been just another "hold muh beer" moment; now that's it's spread to D.C., it's officially a pandemic.

The least the idiot could have done was to have used a wooden ladder. Well, the mankind is better off for his demise. Hopefully he hasn't bred.

Everyone has the capacity to steal, but I try to resist stuff like this.

10-to-1 the sharks are already circling waiting to cash in on this open-and-shut case. I mean you've heard it all before..."Grandma sues McDonalds after pouring coffee on her own lap"; "Man falls through a skylight during a burglarly, sues, and WINS."
To: be4everfree
LOL, that's a great sign!
I actually read this headline as man electrocuted while trying to steal WIFE. I thought it was some middle eastern news story.

An Aluminium Ladder indeed.
