Accident on Oaklawn Avenue this afternoon in Stamford

Crews from the Stamford Police Department and 
Connecticut Power and Light at work to clear an accident



The accident shown above took place on Oaklawn Avenue early in the afternoon. 

(I arrived after the accident so I have no idea as to how and why it occurred)

Apparently, the white van-- shown angled on a tow truck-- side swiped a utility pole. 

Traffic was held up in both directions for no more than 5-10 minutes as the teams of workers 
went about their work. 

 There was no sign of personal injury. 

What is amazing is how quickly the police and utility company worked in unison to get the traffic moving. 

Hats off to all!
