Lincoln drivers may want to avoid O Street this afternoon — at least for a while.

Police say at 2:06 p.m. a call came in to the 100 block of North 52nd Street about a dumptruck that had hit an electric pole, causing power lines to come down.

Officer Katie Flood said officers are at several intersections (at 44th and O, 52nd and R and 48th and R) to direct traffic because traffic lights are out.
