The incident, around 11:30 p.m. in the 300 block of St. Anne’s Road, affected some nearby hydro lines, causing power outages, and led to traffic closures in both directions.

The truck, police said, was inoperable after the crash. Cadets remain at the scene Thursday, while hydro repairs — which are estimated to be completed by 10:30 a.m. — continue.

Police continue to investigate.
