TAUNTON, Mass. (WHDH) – Crews in Taunton are working to get power restored after a car hit a utility pole on Saturday.

The crash happened around 6 p.m. on Bay Street. Power was knocked out in the area — some restaurants were forced to close early and some homes were left in the dark.

The busy road, just off Interstate 495, shut down for hours as workers made repairs.

Police have not said what caused the crash.

Additional details were not immediately available.
