Two men were electrocuted in a fish hatchery located on the property of a farmer which both victims lived near. The men entered the property around November 16th but were found today, the 19th, in the morning.

They were there to steal some fish. They'd been waiting until dark and entered the property, unaware of the presence of the electric fence, which was made by the owner some time before. One man was in the water and started throwing fishes to his accomplice who slipped and fell in the water, instinctively grabbed the fence, then the fatal contact between the two took place.

Electric fence by the water....good thinking.
I wonder how the fish faired.

[Jere]

Well that was a dumb way to go.

That's a great idea....Lets put an electrical fence by the water...Darwin's theory working itself out...

Since the story isn't all that clear...this begs the question:

Did the two farmers who were electrocuted work for the farmer who installed the electric fence? Or, were they attempting to steal from the farmer who owned the property?

It stopped an attempted fish assault, abduction and/or theft.

So, the fence worked admirably well.

I'll bet the fish hatchery's Theft Losses go waaaaay down once this story get's around.

I fish with dynamite, not electricity.......
