TAMPA, Fla. — One person is dead and another is recovering from injuries after they were both apparently electrocuted in a work site incident, authorities said.

Tampa police say officers responded around 2 p.m. Tuesday to the area of Nedro Road and Rowlett Park Drive.

When they arrived, they reported finding one man already dead, along with another man suffering from minor injuries. He was later taken to the hospital.

TPD says while it appears the two were electrocuted, it is still early in the investigation.

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is now investigating this incident.
