A maintenance worker was severely burned and shocked by a power panel at a supermarket in northwest Bakersfield this afternoon.
The emergency call initially came in as an electrical fire at WinCo Foods on Coffee Road just off of Rosedale Highway, but firefighters say there was no fire.
A worker who was working on an electrical panel caused some kind of short and received serious burns to his upper body.
The worker was taken to the hospital and the market was closed until electricity could be restored.
