A hit-and-run incident occurred today at the intersection of West McKinley Avenue and North Rolinda Avenue in Fresno, California, resulting in a power pole being sheared. The incident was reported around 5:31 PM when a vehicle likely struck the pole. Witnesses were unable to confirm the vehicle's involvement, and no injuries have been reported.
Emergency services responded quickly to the scene, where they found the power pole down on the shoulder of the road.
