Wow this is strange in so many ways. My condolences go out to the Cohen family. Quite strange to someone who has designed, operated and entered such substations for 30 years. He would have had to attempt to climb up on to energized equipment separate from the fence which is difficult to do by design. My prayers go out to the family...so sad....

That's rough. Prayers to the Cohen family, that is super painful read just knowing a little bit about how they grew up and were so close.

Man, I was thinking the same thing. That means he would have had to get past bobwire in most cases. Curious to hear the details. 🙏🏾 to the family!
