It wasn’t lightning that knocked out the power off South Edmonds – it was a small dump truck

Everything was going great until they snagged a power line that knocked out power on both sides of South Edmonds.
A small dump truck depositing fill dirt in the front yard of a home in the 55-hundred block of South Edmonds wound up knocking out the power for that particular home, and a number of others on both sides of Edmonds.
The drump truck was dumping fill dirt in the front of a home. Unfortunately, when the dump truck’s bed tilted high in the air, it hit an overhead power line and the power to the home went away….as well as for a number of homes in the immediate area.
Nevada Power was summoned to the scene and fixed the break. It was assumed that power would be restored on both sides of South Edmonds in time for dinner.
