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

Authorities have identified the victims as 55-year-old Melville Braham, 
49-year-old Anna Braham and 15-year-old Anthony Braham.

Authorities say the family was attempting to raise the antenna when they 
lost control of the pole and it struck an overhead power line. The impact 
sent
13,000 volts of electricity through the pole the three were holding.

The mother was pronounced dead at the scene. The father and son were taken 
to a hospital where they were pronounced dead.

The Palm Bay Police Department Victim Services unit is working closely with 
the surviving family members.
