A single-vehicle collision occurred today at the intersection of Foothill Road and Aliso Canyon Road in Santa Paula, CA, when a gray Toyota Tacoma collided with a power pole. The incident took place around 12:55 PM, resulting in the vehicle rolling over and landing on its roof. Fortunately, there were no reported injuries.
Emergency services responded promptly to assess the scene and implement safety measures. Both lanes of traffic were closed during the incident, causing significant disruptions for motorists in the area. A tow truck was called to assist with the recovery of the vehicle; however, due to the power pole leaning at a dangerous angle, the tow was postponed for safety reasons.
Southern California Edison was notified and dispatched a crew to repair the damaged pole. The utility company indicated they would be on-site overnight to address the repairs. Traffic was rerouted, with both westbound and eastbound lanes closed as emergency personnel worked to secure the area.
Motorists are advised to avoid the area and seek alternate routes until the situation is resolved. The California Highway Patrol is managing the incident and will provide updates as they become available. Safety remains the top priority as crews work diligently to restore normal traffic flow and repair the damaged infrastructure.
