NORTHAMPTON — Police partially closed a portion of North King Street outside the Big Y parking lot Friday afternoon after police said a tractor trailer knocked over a wire attached to a stop light. The wire fell onto two SUVs.
Passengers in the Cadillac and Toyota SUVs initially remained inside their vehicles until a National Grid crew determined that the wire was a fiber cable and not carrying an electrical current, police said.
At approximately 4 p.m., a camera hanging from the damaged stop light fell to the ground and was later retrieved by Northampton firefighters.
Crews from the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) assisted police, firefighters and National Grid employees with the takedown.
