    Semi Hits Utility Poll in Downtown Decatur

    Decatur Metro | January 16, 2012

    This was the scene in downtown Decatur this afternoon around 5pm, as Decatur Police and the Fire department closed the intersection of Trinity and North McDonough Street to deal with a semi-truck that was stretched along the southeast corner of the intersection.

    The truck knocked down a utility poll and with it a traffic light and power lines stretching down Trinity.  If you look closely at this picture, you can see a red vertical pole along the left side of this photo holding up power lines off the street.
