STANHOPE, NJ — A Stanhope man was electrocuted while replacing a light at a local beverage distribution center, Randolph police said.

Sean King, 55, was working at High Grade Beverage on Monday when he used a scissor lift to replace an emergency light. King was shocked by live wires, police said.

By the time police arrived, employees had freed King from the wires, but he was still on the lift. Police were able to bring King down and begin CPR, but King was later pronounced dead at the hospital.
