Cleveland fire crews were called to an accident Wednesday afternoon that has caused a power outage for over 100 residents in the area.
The Cleveland Fire Department says a truck traveling southbound on Michigan Avenue Road left the roadway before striking a power pole.
The two poles were ultimately destroyed which caused the still-energized high voltage lines to fall into the roadway.
Thankfully, the driver was uninjured. ]
CU electrical service may be interrupted for some time while repairs are being made.
If Michigan Avenue Road is part of your afternoon commute, authorities ask that you find an alternate route while the road is closed between Pirkle Road and Benton Pike.
