215th Avenue northeast in Belmont. This is to assist. During yesterday's storm the upstairs bathroom outlet in this residence tripped but is very hot. They went to the circuit breaker and received an electric shock. They have called the electric company to shut off power and have called an electrician. Fire department is on scene to assist until electricity is turned off. Location: 215th Avenue northeast and Belmont. KLE 694, time out 1433. One zero to Wright County. I'm direct on this call but I don't know what to do with it. I just told her I paged out the fire department until they can get their electricity turned off, considering the outlet is still very hot and they were shocked at the circuit breaker. I'll stay on scene with them.
