Tourist electrocuted by fridge

A British tourist was electrocuted in Thailand while reaching for a bottle of water from a fridge reports the Mail on Sunday.

Friends say Grant Harrison, 36, from London had been sunbathing by the pool on the island of Koh Phangan when he went to the fridge and received a fatal shock.

He had gone backpacking with his girlfriend after being made redundant for a third time and arrived at the party island last week.
