A Queens man and his dog are the latest victims of stray voltage. According to WPIX, 52-year-old James Evans was walking his dog Max in Far Rockaway at 2 p.m. yesterday when he felt a shock. Max managed to pull away after a few yelps, but Evans says he couldn't move.

Guess what happened next? Max saved him! He dragged his owner away from the electrical current to safety. Or as Evans put it: "The dog is screaming and he drags me across the street and it's a good thing I was holding the chain or I would have been staying there dead."

Max suffered burns to his paws, and his hair color allegedly changed from the shock he received—from black to brown. As for Evans, he checked himself into the hospital after the emergency unit that arrived declined to let his dog, who he calls his hero, into the ambulance.

It's believed the high voltage current came from faulty wiring at a church on Cornaga Avenue, and power has since been shut down there.
