A car traveling on Route 20 near the old armory drove off the side of the road and hit a power pole head-on, snapping the one pole and causing others to lean over the road.
Emergency personnel closed the road and were diverting traffic from the area roughly encompassing GoMart to Buckhannon-Upshur Middle School.
