The man was likely electrocuted at a construction site at 1700 Business Center Dr. just before 7 a.m. April 3. The man’s body was found inside an energized substation, according to the Los Angeles County Fire Department. Firefighters believe the man was electrocuted during an attempted copper wire theft overnight.

It is unclear how long the body was at the construction site before being discovered.
