Power lines fell about lunch time
A portion of Horner Road was closed today in Woodbridge this afternoon.
Power lines fell on a portion of the four-lane road near Rawls Street about 12:15 p.m.
Witnesses said a black pick up struck a utility pole causing it to buckle and the power lines to fall onto the street. The heavily damaged truck then sped away, said two witnesses on the scene.
A police cruiser and fire truck was dispatched to the scene to close traffic. Drivers were diverted off of Horner Road and onto side streets where they could access Occoquan Road to get around the downed lines.
The Prince William Service Authority was also called to the scene after a fire hydrant was also damaged in the collision.
No injuries were reported.
