One-car crash into Shoreline power pole blocks road

SHORELINE, Wash. — A road is blocked and power is out after a car struck a power pole in Shoreline early Tuesday.

The road is blocked on 20th Avenue at 197th Street.

Video from the scene shows a mangled car and two poles leaning into a wooded area along with downed lines.

The car stopped just short of a home.

Seattle City Light’s outage map shows that about 150 customers are without power in the area.

Authorities say alcohol may have been a factor in the crash.
