A 19-year-old man was killed by downed electricity wires after a utility pole snapped and fell in Prince George’s County early Saturday morning. Authorities believe a tree fell on the pole located at the 3200 block of Naylor Road, causing it to fall.
Indy Robert Saunders of the 3500 block of Southern Avenue in Southeast Washington was crushed by the pole and suffered severe burns to his body. Police believe he was killed instantly, although they could not reach him until the power had been shut off.
