    Tractor Trailer Truck Pulls Down Electrical Wires Near Chick-Fil-A Again

    Decatur Metro | January 18, 2012

    NFDecatur provides the picture above (and these 1, 2, 3) and DW provides this eyewitness account of what closed Trinity Avenue between McDonough and Church Street for the second time in the past four days.

    Wednesday, 7:30AM I was sitting one car back from the Chick-Fil-A drive thru window when the Food Service tractor trailer entered the parking lot. Unfortunately they didn’t pull all the wires high enough from Sunday’s accident. The trailer pulled down a light pole and the offending wire. I was blowing the horn and waving but the driver did not get the message until it was too late.

    Utility Line Across Trinity Avenue Catches Fire

    Decatur Metro | January 11, 2012

    Clark sends in this pic of a “not everyday sight”.  Apparently both ends of a utility line across Trinity Avenue between Twains and Fire Station #1 caught fire on Wednesday afternoon.
