Crash Kills Power to Nearly 50 Homes

Two people are at large after plowing their pickup truck into a northwest Harris County backyard. According to sheriff’s deputies, a Ford pickup truck hit a street light and then flipped through a fence and into a backyard on Copper Grove Boulevard near Heatherbank Drive at approximately 1:30 a.m. The truck then hit a utility pole which knocked out power to nearly 50 area residences. A CenterPoint Energy crew arrived at the scene and was able to restore power to most of the homes around 6 a.m. The accident remains under investigation. Witnesses to the incident report seeing two people running away from the scene of the crash. They may have been injured in the crash as well. Fleeing the scene of an accident can be very serious if there are there any injuries or serious property damage involved. These two will be in very serious trouble when they are finally caught.
