MIDDLEBURY — Middlebury police responded to a single-vehicle crash that caused some mayhem in the Case Street area on May 6. Police at around 4:20 a.m. received a report of a man driving his vehicle off the road and hitting a utility pole, snapping it in half.

As a result, electrical and telephone wires were hanging in both the northbound and southbound lanes of Case Street.

Before officers arrived, a second vehicle — a tractor-trailer truck —also struck the pole and electrical wires, damaging and immobilizing the truck, according to police. Case Street was closed off for what police described as a short period of time, while Green Mountain Power and a towing service cleared the site.
