Southern California Edison was trying to determine Thursday how one of its line workers was electrocuted in Paramount.
The electrocution occurred about 5:20 p.m. Wednesday, at 15515 California Ave., said Lt. Eric Lindblom of the sheriff’s Lakewood Station. Sheriff’s homicide detectives were investigating the death, he said.
Jeffrey Moon, 26, of Los Angeles died at the scene, said coroner’s Assistant Chief Ed Winter.
“We don’t know what happened,” Edison spokeswoman Susan Cox said.
Cal-OSHA was notified, Winter said.
