A semitrailer that struck a light pole Monday afternoon near the intersection of Lincoln Highway and Annie Glidden Road cut power to 1,900 customers for more than two hours.

The truck hit a light post about 4:09 p.m., which caused it to fall onto ComEd utility lines, ComEd spokeswoman Judy Mitchell said.

Power to many customers in the area west of Annie Glidden on Lincoln Highway was cut off.

At Pagliai’s Pizza, 1221 W. Lincoln Highway, the power outage stopped workers from making pizza.

“[The employees] are still here; we’re not really doing anything,” said Jamie Paczak, a waitress at Pagliai’s, prior to the power being restored. “It’s really cold.”

Power was restored to 80 percent of customers at 6:13 p.m., Mitchell said.

ComEd workers had to transfer the power from the fallen lines to other ones, Mitchell said.

“First we restore, then repair,” Mitchell said.
