A vehicle versus utility pole accident Thursday night on Canton Pike knocked out power to residents of the area and sent the driver to a Nashville hospital.
The collision report from Hopkinsville police says 31-year-old Tanisha Jesuorobo of Hopkinsville had been headed west about 9 p.m. when she lost control of her car for unknown reasons at Lewis Bridge Way and traveled off the roadway and knocked down a power pole.
Jesuorobo was taken first by EMS to Jennie Stuart Medical Center and then flown by Air Evac to Skyline Medical Center in Nashville with non-life-threatening injuries, including lacerations to her cheek and nose.
Another vehicle driven by a Trigg County man was damaged by running over lines in the road that were knocked down in the crash.
Approximately 24 Pennyrile Electric members in the immediate area lost power for several hours.
