An Anaheim car crash sent a woman driver careening into a power pole, knocking it down and trapping her in her vehicle beneath live wires, according to a news report.
Anaheim police said that the collision involving a gray Mitsubishi sedan and a white sedan occurred in the 800 block of South Beach Boulevard. The impact of the crash sent the Mitsubishi into a power pole, which collapsed on top of the car, trapping the female driver inside beneath the live wires.
Authorities said the sparking wires caused the asphalt road to bubble and smoke until utility workers were able to turn off the electricity. The woman was then rescued from her car and taken to a local hospital with minor injuries.
