Was this a hit & run?
A nearby resident told this news site that shortly after 3:00pm he heard an impact but did not bother to come out until approximately half hour later as he thought he heard traffic moving freely which suggested there was no accident.
He said that as he walked out his yard he noticed something strange about the overhead telephone and electrical cables and decided to investigate.
It was then he spotted the shattered pole with tightly pulled cables attached to it. "It's very dangerous, very dangerous right there now,” he said. Asked if he contacted the BVI Electricity Corporation (BVIEC) he said he did not have credit on his phone.
What appeared to be shards from shattered headlamps from a vehicle were also on the ground and there were also muddy skid marks which suggested that a vehicle might have been responsible for the shattered pole.
This news site did make contact with personnel from the BVIEC who said that they were going to respond immediately.
