Scaffolder loses leg and hand after being electrocuted while working

A scaffolder has had his leg and hand amputated after being severely electrocuted while at work.

Dad-of-two Jamie Mines was working at a height in Swindon just days before Christmas, when he was shocked by the huge volt of electricity.

His injuries were so severe he was placed in a coma.

To save his life he had one leg amputated, lost all the toes on the other, and also had one hand amputated.
