Two Mexican workers die in separate electrical accidents in Veracruz and Coahuila
A 16‑year‑old farm worker, Jaciel Miguel Sierra, was electrocuted while operating a spray‑boom on a pineapple field in Playa Vicente, Veracruz. The metal arm of the equipment is believed to have contacted an overhead high‑voltage line, causing a fatal shock. Police sealed the area and forensic officials are conducting an autopsy.
In Ramos Arizpe, Coahuila, a worker at the SANHUA solar‑panel plant died after receiving a powerful electric shock while handling a solar panel. Emergency services confirmed he was deceased on arrival. Municipal police, state prosecutors and forensic services are investigating the incident and reviewing workplace safety compliance, which could lead to administrative penalties for the company.
