A Guatemalan teenager died when she accidentally came into contact with high-voltage cables and was subsequently decapitated by the current, according to several reports.

Fifteen-year-old Débora Rebeca Xi Artola was on top of a building in the El Centro neighborhood of Alta Verapaz when she tragically died, according to a Spanish-language press release from the local fire department.

The teenager apparently did not notice the wires around her and was electrocuted when she accidentally touched them, fire officials said.

Neighbors claimed a group of teenagers were practicing dance steps on the roof when Débora slipped and got caught in the cables, a Spanish-language newspaper reported. The Herald.

A clip of the incident viewed by PEOPLE appeared to show the teenagers on the roof just before Artola fell onto the power line.

The high-voltage cables caused electricity to flow through Débora’s body, leading to her beheading, per The Herald and Television Azteca.

According to the fire department, Débora’s death was confirmed at the scene of the accident. She fell about six meters.
