A 64-year-old man driving a dump truck was was charged with careless driving Saturday after hitting overhead Rogers wires.
A portion of Woodlawn Road East was closed for several hours after a dump truck knocked down the lines just outside the Canadian Tire parking lot.
Just after 3 p.m. the truck was driving on Woodlawn Road near Woolwich Street with its bucket raised and struck the lines. There were initially concerns the lines, which ended up lying across the truck, could be hydro wires. Investigation revealed they belonged to Rogers, and a portion of the road was closed while crews repaired the damage.
