3 boy scouts electrocuted at Zamboanga City campsite

Three Boy Scouts were killed after they were electrocuted at a campsite in Zamboanga City.

According to a report on "24 Oras," 14 were injured in the incident.

The campsite’s captain said the victims were moving a tent to the camp when it hit a cable wire.

The scouts were part of a jamboree attended by at least 2,000 others.

The Zamboanga City local government has created a critical incident management task group to investigate.

The activity had already been cancelled, and the participants were sent home. —Jiselle Anne C. Casucian/NB, GMA Integrated News
