An Australian man has been electrocuted on a busy street in the popular holiday area of Kuta in Bali.
The 18-year-old from NSW was walking with friends on Jalan Legian when he died after touching a metal pole in a section of the street under repair.
Police said a witness
saw the man grab the pole and then heard him scream.
He had been walking with two friends on a section of footpath which was obstructed by concrete slabs due to ongoing roadworks.
The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) has confirmed the incident, which occurred on Saturday morning.
