James Foxworthy was an employee of the Indianapolis Power and Light Company. As part of his employment duties, he was required to work with an electric meter box with a metal bracket at a shopping mall located at 5755 East 86th Street, in Indianapolis, Indiana. While Mr. Foxworthy was working with the electric meter box, the metal bracket came lose from the meter cabinet. The metal bracket fell into the live, energized electrical meter block, created an electrical explosion and fire, and caused serious and permanent injury to James Foxworthy.
