A Volvo truck driver reported an incident on June 16th, calling in at approximately 2:30 PM. The driver stated that while he was carrying oversized cargo, the vehicle sustained damage to its electrical cables. These cables reportedly snapped, resulting in sparking near the scene.
Due to the inherent safety risks posed by the size of the truck, the driver reported that he was unable to return to the exact location. Following the report, police and ESO specialists were dispatched to the area to investigate the situation. Initial assessments indicated that the incident caused a loss of electrical service affecting 13 ESO customers located on Širvintų g.
and Paberžės g. The report detailed that the damaged electrical infrastructure was directly linked to the incident involving the heavy vehicle and its cargo. The presence of sparking cables necessitated the driver’s departure to ensure traffic safety was not compromised further.
Emergency services responded promptly to secure the area and assess the extent of the damage. The investigation focused on the damaged electrical lines and the operational status of the truck after it had been involved in the incident. The resulting power outage highlights the potential impact of industrial incidents on local utility services.
Authorities are currently working to restore power to the affected residences following the necessary safety protocols.
