The Alliance Volunteer Fire Department was called to an incident at Newberry's at approximately 11:05 a.m. on Oct. 20.
Two people on a man lift were working on some windows when they came into contact with electrical voltage.
"Anytime that there's basically like an electrocution the state electrical inspector has to be involved," Alliance Fire Chief Troy Shoemaker said. "We were able to get the people out of the bucket of the man lift and transported to Box Butte General Hospital. We contacted the Nebraska Electrical Division. The District 1 Electrical Inspector arrived and started his investigation. The outcome was pretty good considering the situation that we had."
The Alliance Police Department assisted with this situation.
