CHELSEA, MASS. (WHDH) - Officials worked to clear a Chelsea street Tuesday after a utility pole came crashing down.

SKY7 HD flew over the scene near the intersection of Clinton and Washburn streets around 4 p.m. about an hour after a cement truck struck and downed a utility pole, according to police.

The driver of the truck was trapped inside for about 20 minutes before utility crews arrived to shut off power to the area. No injuries were reported.

Eversource said at one point, thousands of homes and businesses were without power.

Those who live nearby say a lot of construction vehicles have been in the area lately.

The incident remains under investigation.
