A single-vehicle accident hospitalized 1 person in southeast Grand Rapids (Grand Rapids, MI)

On early Wednesday morning, one person was sent to the hospital following a single-vehicle crash in southeast Grand Rapids.

The incident took place shortly before 12:45 a.m. near the intersection of Oakhill Street SE and Kalamazoo Avenue SE. The preliminary investigation showed that the driver smashed into a pole, shearing it off and taking out several power lines.

Consumers Energy responded to the scene to fix the damage and restore power in the area. According to the reports, about 95 customers in the area are without power, with an expected repair time set for 8:30 a.m.

The stretch of road will be partially blocked until those power lines can be cleared from the crash site. Authorities were still on scene as of 2:45 a.m. One person was transported to the hospital with unspecified injuries. Officials believe that alcohol might have been involved in the accident.

An investigation continues.
