A woman was electrocuted as she attempted to push a vehicle off an electrical box.
"We were unable to make access to the patient inside the vehicle because the power was active and they were being electrocuted as we showed up," San Diego Battalion Chief Oscar Rodriguez told CBS8.
The 22-year-old victim was a passenger in a 2014 Kia Forte that veered to the right, drove over the sidewalk and struck an electrical box. She and the driver, a 31-year-old woman, both got out of the vehicle.
"The passenger attempted to push the vehicle off of the electrical box and was electrocuted," police said adding that she was pronounced dead at the scene.
The driver suffered minor burns and was transported to a hospital.
