Crash in Sacramento
A car accident on Saturday night in Sacramento left a person trapped inside their vehicle and caused power outages affecting hundreds of residents, according to officials from the Fire Department. The incident occurred around 9 p.m. in the 8700 block of Fruitridge Road, when a car collided with a light pole. Although authorities are still investigating the exact causes of the accident, it is known that the area was lit by active transformers, which complicated access and posed a risk of collapse for rescue teams trying to free the trapped person.
After a delicate operation, emergency teams managed to free the victim, who was quickly transported to the hospital for medical treatment. Although critical injuries were initially reported, it was later confirmed that the injuries were less severe.
The incident mobilized multiple emergency response agencies, which continued to work in the affected area to ensure safety and restore electricity supply. SMUD, the local utility company, reported that more than 200 customers experienced power outages and projected that service would be restored around 11:15 p.m. Sacramento police reduced traffic on Fruitridge Road to a single lane while conducting the investigation to determine the precise circumstances of the accident and assess any possible involvement of external factors.
This incident underscores the importance of road safety and the rapid response of emergency services in critical situations like this, where coordination and efficient resource management are crucial to minimize the impact on the affected community.
