A man was transported to the hospital Friday morning after crashing into a power pole near the New Apostolic Church on Bouquet Canyon Road.

According to witnesses, the man lost control while driving his truck about 8:30 a.m. before crashing. He was able to exit the vehicle, though visibly injured.

Emergency responders and Southern California Edison were called onto the scene to assist the injured man and assess the damage of the power pole.

The power is expected to be out in the area until 11:30 a.m. Friday, according to the SoCal Edison website. About 340 customers are without power.

One person was transported to Henry Mayo Newhall Hospital via ground ambulance, said a representative with the Los Angeles County Fire Department Public Information Office.

Due to the active power line, traffic was diverted around the crash site.

  4. Pedro Luna says:

  5. Todd Damann says:

    Pole 1. Moron..none. Lmao

  6. Amanda Vera says:

    Still close just went to go that way and had to turn around

  7. Road might open at 8 or 9 pm according to CHP officer that I talked to.

  8. Why doesn’t the chp put a sing at the beginning of Vasquez?? It would be much appreciated.

  9. Road may be closed till 9pm

  10. Because its all double time for Edison

  11. See what happen when you leave…..

  12. Called CHP they couldn’t help, I really don’t want to go all the way around to Vasquez when I live just pass this

  13. Hey Ashley Freude they did put a sign down there by Vasquez where they should have put a sign is down by plum Canyon or David way for us that have to come this way since a lot of us live right by the accident and literally have to drive all the way around there is no warning until you get to the accident site that you can’t come through

  14. Lisa Ayers says:

    I really don’t see why a path cannot be made for those of us who literally live right here??

  15. I couldn’t even count how many Edison trucks there are still 9hrs later

  16. Hmmm…maybe there has been a fatality?

  17. Bob Dixon says:

    He was hurt,, air bags didn’t go off,,, left some of his cheek’s there,,,,internal injuries,,,,, 60mph

  18. Laura Princess Romero

  19. Tessa Lucero says:

    If you don’t have anything edible in the house that you can prepare without power, let this be a wake up call to be prepared for the possibility of earthquake or another power outage. After Northridge we lost power for a day and then water for two more days, and Valencia and Newhall were far worse off than we were in east Canyon Country. Have canned food (and a can opener!), nonperishable dry food, a charcoal barbecue and briquettes or a camping stove and fuel.
