A traffic accident occurred after 8:30 p.m. this Sunday, at the intersection of avenues Eliodoro Yáñez with Sweden, in the commune of Providencia.

Specifically, a RED bus and a private vehicle collided at the scene, which caused serious damage to a power line pole and caused a power outage in the surrounding area, as reported by auditors from Radio Bío Bío.

The situation forced emergency personnel to divert traffic on both avenues, so motorists had to move along nearby roads.

According to what Enel and Firefighters indicated, electricity will return to homes before dawn this Monday.
