Five cattle were killed and two people received injuries when two power pylons fell over them on Saturday.

Faisalabad Electric Supply Company (FESCO) sources said that breeders were grazing cattle in Kalarwala locality of Pir Mahal in Toba Tek Singh when two electricity towers overloaded with electricity wires fell down on them.

Five cattle died after being electrocuted while two people were injured who were shifted to a nearby hospital.

The local people expressing anguish over the incident criticised the FESCO for slackness which resulted in property loss and injured two people. They demanded the chief minister to take notice of the incident, directing action against the FECO officials and compensating those affected.
