Millers Run Road is closed between Muse Bishop Road and Mawhinney Road in Cecil Township after a truck took down a utility pole Thursday morning.

The top of a Pepsi delivery truck caught an electric wire after leaving Winkle’s Pit Stop and pulled down the pole at approximately 10 a.m., Cecil Police Chief Mike Falconer said.

A Facebook post made by Cecil Township Volunteer Fire Co. No. 3 said the incident caused electric and phone service to be affected in the area. Falconer said West Penn Power was on the scene within 10 minutes.

Falconer did not have an estimated time for when the road would reopen.
