Layton Man Killed LAYTON - An 18-year-old Layton man was electrocuted in Salt Lake City last Friday morning - the day before he was to be married. KILLED IN the freak industrial in-dustrial accident was David L Adams, of 3024 N. 2350 E., Layton. Witnesses for Cameo Construction Cons-truction Co., of which the vie- tim was employed, -said Mr. Adams was working with four co-workers moving a piece of concrete wall that was suspended sus-pended by a crane. THEY SAID the piece of wall accidently brushed a high-power line and the electricity apparently went through a metal pole causing him to be electrocuted. The victim was treated at Holy Cross Hospital where he died a short time later. TWO OTHER workers at the scene also received light electrical shocks in the accident, ac-cident, but were apparently not seriously hurt, according to a Salt Lake City police report. Mr. Adams was treated at the scene by a fireman until an ambulance arrived.
