Accident caused by fallen power lines leaves many without electricity
Downed power lines on KY 56 in Daviess County, Kentucky resulted in an accident and a power outage affecting thousands of people. The incident blocked off both lanes of KY 56 between the 11.8- and 11.9-mile markers. According to a report obtained by Eyewitness News, repairs are expected to take around 12 hours. The Daviess County Sheriff's Office reported that a vehicle collided with the downed power lines, caused by five poles knocked down during the storm.

Around 875 Kenergy customers are currently without power as a result of this situation, and there is no estimation on when power will be restored.
