Eudora boy shocked by electric pump

A 12-year-old boy was shocked ear-ly Friday in Eudora, apparently by an electric pump in a driveway that came into contact with a water puddle.

The emergency call came about 7:30 a.m. as a possible electrocution in the 700 block of Locust Street. Upon emergency workers’ arrival, however, the boy turned out to not be injured and declined medical treatment, said Deputy Chief Mark Bradford, of Lawrence-Douglas County Fire & Medical.
