COLUMBUS, Ohio — One person was hospitalized after a car crashed into a utility pole Sunday morning in the Clintonville area.
Columbus police report the crash happened around 2:15 a.m. in the area of North High Street and Brighton Road.
Officials say one person was taken to Riverside Medical Center, and that person was described as stable. There's no word on what caused the crash.
The crash caused businesses and residents to be without power for part of the day, but power has been restored, according to AEP's outage map.
"I just watching TV. Next thing, you know, the power went out. It was out for two hours, and then it came back on early this morning," said Marian Robinette, who lives on North Broadway Street. "I was an hour or two late getting up this morning, because I didn't know that the power was off. It was just a crazy morning," she said.
"The streets are so narrow in Clintonville that you know, as people are coming up, you have to kind of maneuver to pull over, you know, so it took longer, and there's more traffic," said Laurinda Woodward, a member of Clinton Heights Lutheran Church.
