JEROME, Idaho (AP) _ Police say a man from Kimberly was fatally electrocuted while working at a construction site in Jerome.

Thirty-eight-year-old Kenneth Donald Lahn was pronounced dead at St. Benedicts Family Medical Center on Tuesday morning.

Jerome Police Officer Patrick Wilson says Lahn was guiding the cables of a crane operated by a co-worker when he swung the cables into a live power line. The electrical current apparently shot through the cables and the crane before it grounded through an outrigger _ one of the legs that stabilize the crane.

The man who was operating the crane was unharmed. Police have ruled Lahn's death an accident.
