A heavy truck struck a power line





A 53-foot heavy truck made a road trip on the 108 West this Tuesday around 12:20 p.m. in Saint-Éphrem. He then struck a hydro-Québec pole and electrical wires.


When writing these lines, the driver was still stuck in his vehicle’s cabin, firefighters try to get him out, but it is difficult to access. Consequently, the Sûreté du Québec does not know its state of health.


« The heavy vehicle towing is on the way and a police officer in collision investigation will also go there to analyze the scene “Said Béatrice Dorsainville, the Communications Service of the Sûreté du Québec.


Traffic was closed between Route 269 and the 271, a detour was therefore established by Route 269.


Note also that a remote load shedding was therefore requested 1,469 addresses have no electricity at the moment.
