Nov 9, 2013 | 3:03 PM

For any Prince Albert residents who lost power on Saturday afternoon, it was likely due to a car accident that happened just off the intersection of Central Avenue and 22nd Street.

An ambulance, fire truck and police car were on the scene, just beside Kinsmen Park around 3:30 p.m.

Soon after a car hit a power pole, a young male spoke with the emergency crew members. Someone else was sitting in the car during that time.

A police officer on the scene said power in some areas was out because of the incident.

As of about 3:40 p.m., SaskPower had been contacted to assist in getting the power back on.
