A Tampa resident has filed a personal injury lawsuit against Tampa Electric Co. after a live wire fell and shocked him in his Plant City community. Diego Santiago is suing for more than $15,000 following claims he has suffered dizzy spells, headaches, blurred vision and mental and emotional trauma according to a story on tampabay.com.
The incident took place early last year when Santiago was talking to an acquaintance. The line fell and shocked him into unconsciousness for 10 minutes. Tampa Electric owns both the light pole and the electric transformer according to the article. The suit alleges that the company should have known of the problem and corrected it.
