GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — Power went out for about 3,500 Consumers Energy customers and several traffic lights are out in the general vicinity of 44th Street and Breton Road after a car hit a transformer Tuesday.
“Someone apparently drove into some of our electrical equipment,” a Consumers representative told FOX 17.
Kent County dispatchers say a car struck the transformer at Breton Road and Drummond Boulevard SE, “and blew it up.”
There were no immediate reports of injuries.
