Investigators say 100 homes were without power Wednesday after a semi truck crashed into a power pole breaking it.

The State Patrol says around 5:00 Wednesday evening, the semi went into the ditch off Highway 85. Investigators say this crash caused a power problem for about 10 minutes.

Eau Claire Energy Cooperative says those homes were without power for that short time but the power is back on now. Investigators say the driver of the semi truck was not seriously hurt.
