Hundreds of people who were without power after a car crashed into a pole near the Berlin Turnpike in Newington on Tuesday have their power restored.

The Newington Volunteer Fire Department said they responded to the area of Berlin Turnpike and Kitts Lane around 8 p.m.

An Eversource spokesperson said the car took down most of the utility pole.

At one point, Eversource reported nearly 2,000 outages. Power has since been restored to all customers in Newington.

It's unknown if there were any injuries.
