Boy seriously injured in 'electric shock' incident on farm remains in hospital

A teenage boy who was seriously injured in an 'electric shock' incident on a farm near Stokesley remains in hospital one week on. Emergency services were called to the Holme Lane area, near Seamer, after the teen suffered suspected electric shock injuries last Tuesday (July 29) at about 4pm. He was airlifted to hospital in a serious condition, while two men, aged 47 and 71, were arrested in connection with the ordeal. The pair were both bailed last week - and North Yorkshire Police has confirmed today (Tuesday, August 5) that they both remain on police bail. Meanwhile, the boy remains in hospital. His current condition remains unknown. As previously reported, several ambulance crews, including two air ambulances, were called to the farm after the incident last week. The scene last week (Image: NORTHERN ECHO) Pictures of the scene on Wednesday showed a police van parked in the centre of a field beside a combine harvester, just off Holme Lane. The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) previously confirmed it has been made aware and is currently liaising with police. One elderly man, who lives nearby, witnessed the 999 response: 'I saw all the vehicles there, it was at about 5.30pm yesterday. 'There were two helicopters and various vehicles there. I don't know what has happened.' If you witnessed the incident, or were in the area at the time, please call police on 101, or contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 or via its website.
