SOUTH JORDAN, Utah (AP) -- A Kennecott employee is recovering this morning after being shocked.
It happened yesterday in an area near 8300 West and 10200 South.
Fire officials say the man was helping to lift a large metal shed-type structure with an overhead crane. That's when the crane came in contact with some overhead lines.
Fire officials say the man got a pretty good-sized shock, and was knocked unconscious for about 30 seconds.
The employee was then taken to the University Hospital in good condition with minor burns.
