St. Charles, MO – A 64-year-old man from St. Charles died Tuesday after being electrocuted following a crash.

Leon Schneider was driving his SUV on Highway 94 in Warren County afternoon when it left the roadway and struck a utility pole.

Schneider got out and walked away. But the Missouri State Highway Patrol says that when he returned to the vehicle, he was electrocuted by wires he had clipped.
