Power Restored After Large Struck Strikes Several Electric Poles In Lebanon

Power restoration efforts are complete in Lebanon after a large truck slide off the road, striking numerous utility poles and knocking power out to a large portion of the city.

In response to the outage, the city had opened a Warming Shelter at the Free Store Ministry, located at 615 West Elm Street, for anyone impacted by the ongoing power outage.

Officials had also reserved overflow space at the Laclede County Office of Emergency Management at 186 North Adams Ave, if necessary.

The power outage affected areas off Jefferson near Commerce Bank, including Twin Maples and Cedarcrest Drives, as well as businesses in that area.
