The pellets cut one of the 63,000 volt cables, reports Progress. The line fell to the ground near a house, which could have had some unfortunate consequences if a walker or someone else had been nearby.

The inhabitants of Chambost-Allières (Rhône) and the surrounding area, however, were not deprived of electricity since another line immediately took over, said RTE, network manager.
