.A middle-aged man was on Wednesday evening electrocuted to death in the Ulanda area of Awendo, Migori County.
Confirming the incident, Awendo sub-county police commander Mathias Pombo said the deceased had just dropped his daughter at a nearby secondary school and was going back home when he was electrocuted.
Pombo said an electricity pole on the power line with wires carrying live current fell down and unfortunately the deceased got in contact with the live wire and he died on the spot.
He said the efforts to resuscitate him were futile.
