Hundreds of homes and businesses were without electricity Wednesday morning after a car sheared a utility pole.
The vehicle rolled over just after 7 a.m. along Albert Street, just south of Hubbard Road, shattering the pole, bringing down wires and a transformer.
A rescue squad from the Youngstown Fire Department was dispatched after being told that people may be trapped in the car.
According to FirstEnergy, 700 customers in the area lost power, including traffic lights along Albert Street.
Power to all but a handful of customers was restored at around 8:30 a.m.
Police say the woman driving the car was not seriously injured.
