The crash occurred on Jordan Spring Road near the Sheriff’s office entrance, according to York County Sheriff William King
“There is a motor vehicle crash involving a plow truck and a smaller vehicle,” King said in a statement released shortly before 7 a.m. “The smaller vehicle struck a utility pole causing it to break and spewing power lines across the road.”

No injuries were reported, but King asked motorists to avoid the area and find an alternate route.
