Washington man electrocuted by urinating on power line

[Ray]

An Elma, Wash., man was killed by accidentally urinating on a downed power line after a one-car crash near Montesano.
Grays Harbor County sheriff's Deputy Dave Pimentel said Monday that Roy Messenger, 50, was not seriously hurt after he collided with a power pole Friday night. Messenger called a relative to pull his car out of the ditch.
When family members arrived they found Messenger electrocuted. Pimentel said Messenger apparently urinated into a roadside ditch but didn't see the live wire.
Pimentel said there will be an autopsy but burn marks indicated the way the electricity traveled through Messenger's body.
