Larry Ortega, 23, of Caloocan City writhed dying as thousands of volts of electricity surged through his body while six of his co-workers were injured after hitting a live wire at their Valenzuela City work site last December 5. Investigation said that the victims were working with a round steel bar when they accidentally hit an overhead Meralco transmission line that electrocuted Ortega to death. His co-workers were rushed to Valenzuela Medical Center where they are presently confined for treatment. –MARY ANN TUPLANO, Manila Times
