PALM BAY (AP) – Police say a mother, father and 15-year-old son were electrocuted while putting up a ham radio antenna in their Palm Bay home.

The victims were identified Tuesday by police as 55-year-old Melville Braham, 49-year-old Anna Braham, and their son, Anthony.

Authorities say rescue crews responded to a 911 call about the electrocution Monday evening when they found the three on the ground not breathing.
