I came by there going westbound not long after it happened. Thanks for posting this, now I know what the heck happened!
"A dump truck with a raised bed went through a construction zone and “somehow snagged” a utility wire stretched across I-30." Not really a "freak accident" when you are cruising down the road with a raised bed. Glad no one was injured...or worse.
Imagine what the call to safety was like. Driver: "Boss, I was hit by a power pole", Boss: "you mean you hit a power pole?", Driver: "no, I was driving down the road and this power pole and power line came out of nowhere and hit me",
