A crew member cuts down a damaged telephone pole at Milepost 21 on westbound State Route 14. A semi truck smacked into the pole and split it in two Tuesday, at 8:39 a.m.
The truck traveled about 300 feet through this ditch before taking out the telephone pole and releasing a live wire. "People said sparks were flying all over the place," said Washington State Trooper Will Finn. "It sounded pretty dramatic."
