CARLISLE TWP. — Power was out on and around Middle Avenue and the road was closed just north of the railroad tracks in Carlisle Township this afternoon.

A Blue Star Metal Recycling dump truck snagged power lines, snapping one utility pole at the base and severing another near its top and tangling a large amount of wires. A third pole ripped sideways. Two of the poles are electrical poles and one is a telephone pole.

First responders also cleaned up a hydraulic fluid leak.

Ohio Edison and Windstream were called to the scene.
